      Occurred to me that a nice feature would be an auto-logout of the Web Admin Interface at a user definable time period of inactivity. A checkbox to activate/deactivate the feature, and a field to input the number of minutes of inactivity.

      Not a big deal but thought it could be handy…

      2.6.0-RELEASE

        It already does this. The timeout period is controllable under System > User Manager on the Settings tab. Default timeout is 4 hours.

          This topic would best be handled in the Web-GUI Forum, but FYI the auto logout settings are at "System->User Manager->Settings"

          A search of the Wiki Docs for "logout" or "expire session" would find it.
