Re: [K12OSN] Inactivity log out

In our school's situation it would be better if it were automatic, not 
something that requires human intervention.  I'm one of two system 
administrators and we are both teachers elsewhere in the building.  The 
most desireable option would to be not to have to run to a lab several 
times a day to clear unlogge out users.  Is there such a thing?
