Gee Fred, no faith...

Either works - each time /usr/new/csh (aka csh here) starts up, it sets
autologout to 60.  Either setting it to zero or unsetting it disables the
autologout feature.

Note that it doesn't get inherited, so it seems that you really want to
put it in your .chsrc rather than .login as I suggested the first time
around...

Obviously, this implementation is a leetle bit questionable...
