I have a fairly trivial demon that reads utmp every so often (frequency
is a command line option) and kills users idle for longer than the maximum
allowed (another option).  It also allows for a list of users and devices
immune to being killed.

If anyone else would like a copy, mail me.  If there are enough, I will
post to comp.sources.misc.
