[K12OSN] Automatic user logout script?

[Petre Scheie]

How about this:

#!/bin/bash
for ID in $(awk -F: '$3 >= 500 {print $1}')
do
pkill $ID
done

Put this into a file, make it executable (chmod +x), and then set root's crontab to run 
it at, say 5pm.  Fedora defaults to starting user UID numbers at 500 and going up from 
there, so we avoid killing any system processes.
