Automatically Killing the Idle Processes

Comment:

Hi, I would like to know if there is any way to kill the user processes (other than root or su processes) that are idle for more the 10 minutes. I have tried executing the script that is given in this blog but was unable to kill the user processes. I don't know what went wrong because I have copied the script as it is in the blog and executed it. If you can please elaborate the procedure how to execute the script I'll match it with the way I have done it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Prasad
