telnet idle timeout on Redhat kernel 2.4.35.4

Hello,

I've searched this forum for telnet idle timeout problem. I tried to set timeout parameters in /etc/profile

readonly TMOUT=10
export TMOUT

This doesn't work for Redhat kernel 2.4.35.4. It's really frustrating.

Can anybody tell me what else I could try?

Thanks a lot!
