Thanks Ron – noted. Our network settings lock PCs after a short period of inactivity, so not necessarily a concern if Xerte is on its own dedicated server I guess.

Hi Bev

This is obviously a technical question and should really be posted to the technical list http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte rather than here on the teachers list.

However this isn’t really a Xerte specific issue and is likely to be a server wide session timeout setting that your server admin will ned to change. Be careful increasing that however – sessions timing out after a period of inactivity is usually a dsirable thing to protect against unauthorised access e.g. a user leaving a shared machine with the computer and workspace still logged in.

Hi,

We have a Xerte installation and I wonder if anybody can tell me how we change the timing on the setting that makes Xerte timeout after a period of inactivity?

Thanks in advance.

Bev
