Subject:   Where is 'autologout' set?

I have been having a pesky little problem with the tcsh 'autologout'
feature. Here is the situation:

(1) A single FreeBSD machine sets an autologout of 60 minutes
    whenever I connect via ssh. Of my several FreeBSD machines, this
    is the only one to do this.

(2) The autologout is not set if I telnet in or logon at the console.

(3) The autologout is set no matter what machine I login from, as long
    as it is the ssh protocol.

(4) The autologout is not set in the /etc/csh.* files,

    % grep auto /etc/csh.*
    %

(5) Or in the user's dotfiles,

    % grep auto .login .cshrc
    %

(6) Nothing about autologout in ssh_config or sshd_config.

(7) To be thorough, I tried login.conf. Nothing I could see that would
    cause this.

Where am I not looking? What could be causing this? I realize a dirty
workaround is to unset the autologout in one of the files I checked
above, but I'd rather know why this is happening in the first
place. The only difference between the machine in question and most of
my other FreeBSD machines is that this one deos not have X
installed. The system is 2.2.8-STABLE.

Thanks for any help.
