How I can configure telnet session time-out parameter to expire after 15 minutes of inactivity.

Thanks,

Vlad
 
You can use the TMOUT environmental variable, ie:
# export TMOUT=xx
where xx is the number of seconds to timeout after, you can
put in users ".profile" or set to everyone in "/etc/profile"
