You will find an autologout program on page 4 of the VAX Professional,
December 1987, (written in DCL so it's easy to understand), and another one
in the October 1986 issue of the same journal.  I'm sure you'll get
other responses.  These only run under VMS.  You might submit
your question to comp.unix.questions on usenix if you want a unix
version.  Actually, you could probably write a simple shell script
that used the w of finger command.  Both of these give idle time.
Finger lets you know what process is running, as well.  Good luck.
