I would like to have my lab workstations logout a session after the person has been idle for a certain period of time. After some searching on the web, I got into /etc/gconf/schemas/gnome-session.schemas and set the default value of max_idle_action to “forced-logout”: <schema> <key>/schemas/desktop/gnome/session/max_idle_action</key> <applyto>/desktop/gnome/session/max_idle_action</applyto> <owner>gnome</owner> <type>string</type> <default>forced-logout</default> <gettext_domain>gnome-session-2.0</gettext_domain> <locale name="C"> <short>The action to take after the maximum idle time</short> <long>The name of the action to take when the maximum allowed idle time has been reached. The Delay is specified in the "max_idle_time" key. Allowed values are: logout, forced-logout. An empty string disables the action.</long> </locale> </schema> but the system is not logging me out after the max_idle_time. Is there something I’m missing?
