Re: Telnet Idle Timeout

Hi Galea,

this can be simply done thru the BASH settings, there is a default variable
defined
TMOUT, if you set this, it wil terminate the bash session after the set
period of time.
this deals with SSH aswell.. (any program afaik that starts up bash and
reads the
bash_profile).

for more info on this i'd like to refer you to 'man bash', its listed there.

hope this helps :)
