auto logoff after inactivity in domain

I have a Windows SBS 2003 domain controller with Windows XP clients, I'm looking
for a way to automatically logoff users after a certain period of inactivity. I found
one way (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314999) but it requires configuration on
the clients which I don't want to do because they can just remove it.
Is there any other way to accomplish this?

If you are just looking for a way to log them off if they leave their computers on
after they leave for the day, you can do this in group policy through Default domain
policy by setting log on hours and enabling the log off after logon hours expire
option in the GPO. however, if you want to auto log them off during logon hours
after a specified period of inactivity you will more than likely have to use a third
party utility such as the one here:
