Remote Desktop - IDLE Timeout Disconnect - CHANGE LENGTH OF IDLE TIME

When I connect to a server running Windows Server 2003 via RDP, the connection is disconnected after 15 minutes of idle timeout.

I want to lengthen the amount of idle time before a RDP session is disconnected.

Where can I change that value?

I have seen references to running gpedit.msc, and then "In Computer Configuration,Administrative Templates, Windows Components,Terminal Services, Sessions, enable the settings you want to configure."

Sounds nice, in theory, except that I HAVE NO "Terminal Services" line item in this location. Under Windows Components, I have "Event Forwarding, Windows Remote Management, Windows Remote Shell, Windows Media Player, Windows Update".

I would appreciate commentary from someone who understands the question I am asking. If you don't understand my question, then please don't respond with more questions.
