Hello folks,

As a LAN administrator, how can I configure my Linux box's to automatically log off certain users after a pre-determined period of time, and if possible, give them a warning (like a count-down) before it actually happens?

For example. If Johnny, as part of the 'restricted' user group, logs on, then could there be some mechinism that will automatically log him off after, say, 30 minutes?

All advice is helpful!

No [furrycat] seal of approval on this one (I haven't tried it) but it sounds like what you need:
