Changing the time that XP automatically logs a user off

[Tim]

I am trying to change the time that a user can stay on XP
before the system automatically logs one off.

Thanks,

This capability is only active within a domain.
If in a domain use policy to set the system to log off
users with login times expire.

Hi

That will not log users off from their local machine - only from network
resources.

As far as I know, there is nothing builtin in Windows that will force a
user logoff from the local machine at a set time. You might get something to
work with a scheduled script though.
