Force User to Logoff Windows 7 after number of idle time
I have a windows 2003 domain controller. I am trying to setup a GPO that will force users account to logoff windows 7 Pro machine after the session has been idle for an hour. What is the best way to do this? Thanks

I don't see this policy "Automatically Log Off Users When Time Expires" at the location specified. thanks
Sorry about my previous comment.
This are the keys you will need to change:
Default Domain Policy > Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options:
Enable - Microsoft network server: Disconnect clients when logon hours expire
Enable - Network security: Force logoff when logon hours expire
Default Domain Policy > Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options:
