Check to see what profile is assigned to the users and then modify that profile using:

alter profile xxx limit idle_time 300;

(300 minutes = 5 hours).

I strongly suggest that if they are not currently assigned to a profile other than the default profile that you create a new profile with the settings you want and then assign that profile to the users. Modifying the default profile may have effects that you may not anticipate.
