Try this.

In your administrator's account home directory (/root in the case of the
root account), edit the file .bash_profile and put the line before the
"export" line.

TMOUT=600          #(number of seconds inactivity before logout) 

then include TMOUT in the "export" line for the TMOUT variable to be
included. Like this

export PATH USERNAME BASH_ENV TMOUT
