Firing people for violating the 5 minute rule seems a tad extreme. If there is 
indeed a company policy regarding the 5 minute idle window you and you intend 
to roll forward with a connection kill script then also make screen or tmux 
available. In my experience people tend to be more accepting of connection 
outages if they can reconnect to where the were when they were last on.

Subject: sshd - time out idle connections

Hello list,
  
  
  
  I'm facing this unusual demand at work where we need to time out idle SSH 
connections for security purposes.
  
  I've checked the following options from sshd_config but none seems to fit my 
needs :
  TCPKeepAlive
  ClientAliveCountMax
  ClientAliveInterval
  
  
  Basically, I'm trying to defeat the use of the following client-side option:
  ServerAliveInterval 5
  
  
  I'm afraid all I've hit now is dead ends.
  
  
  Has anyone ever had the same requirements before and, perhaps, found a 
solution to this ?
