Check your process table ("ps wwwauxf | less") and see if there's a
logoutd or something like that running. Then, have a look at
"/etc/security/time.conf". "logoutd" is part of the "login" package,
and is apparently no longer present in "unstable" for some reason.
I've never run it, by simply commenting out everything in time.conf.
