Logging out is simply a matter of removing the user object from session.

If the session times out there won't be a user in the session anyway.

This isn't really Struts-related; it's more of a JEE thing.

Sessions expire automatically (usually) depending on how your server is configured. That is still not a Struts issue, however.
