You will have to install a daemon called idled. Depending on which version of Solaris you are running, you should be able to find a copy at http://www.darkwing.com/idled/

You can use stty on most Unices to set the amount of time idle someone is allowed. If you are doing as a security means of some sort, it might be better to go with idled, but if you just have limited resources, and forgetful users, the stty setting might suffice. See man stty for details.
