I have changed the program w to a new programm autologout.
The programm does kill loginshells that are idle for a given time.
It uses the HANGUP signal, it also kills a loginshell with more
running processes when the elapsed time is > 120 min. or for save
use >  240 min.
I use a VAR to check the user-number, a user-number < 20 won't be killed .
It is a beta version but I use it for six month without problems.
The only problem is that the programm w is copyrighted (I think).
But let me know if you want it.
