      Hello, I'm using ntopng 1.1 v0.2 on 2.1.5-RELEASE and it keeps forgetting the admin password.  It seems once I get logged out of ntopng, I can not get back in with default admin/admin or admin/<<what i="" set="">>.  If I go to Settings, and 'set' the admin password, I can immediately get in; But if I'm idle too long I guess, or wait too long to login, I can no longer login.  If I go to Settings and reset the password, everything is OK.  Anyone have any ideas?</what>

          Can you update to the latest version of ntopng and try this again?

          I could never reproduce it, but I added a "save" command to redis just after setting the password so it will sync the database to disk.

            I'm having this same issue with ntopng 1.1 v0.3 on 2.1.5.

            I'm not sure that it's a forgetting the password issue.

            I'll get the ntop login page, and when I put in the credentials it just sits there.

            So I go into ntopng settings, and click 'Change' without doing anything else, and it seems to reset something and allow me in again.

            This is with a password I set.  So the settings page seems to remember the password.
