Sorry, morning brain fade. I misinterpreted what you want.

OK, the way it works is like this: any parameter on the PM which can
be overridden by a RADIUS attribute will be, if that attribute is
present. However, setting a timer (Idle-Timeout, Session-Timeout) to
0 is the same as omitting it - 0 is the key value for "disable this
function". The PM will ignore the attribute, since it's turned off,
and use its internal setting.

So if you want to get rid of the idle timeout for certain users, turn
them off -entirely- on the PM, and use the Idle-Timeout attribute
exclusively.

There. That's better. I'm off to get some caffeine so this doesn't
happen again. :)
