  • timeout of active user by level

    From Nuke@1:103/705 to All on Sat Nov 19 06:48:29 2022
    I scoured over the last year and didn't see the question - but suspect it's a repetitive one:
    - Is there a way to manage timeout of an active user, and can it vary by level? Like LEVEL 60 up to X minutes and SYSOP to XX minutes?

    Are you talking about inactivity timeout? Sysops normally get the 'H' exemption, which makes them exempt to inactivity timeouts.

    So it's generally infinite inactivity (for users that have the 'H' exemption) or whatever inactivity timeout you have configured in SCFG->Nodes.

    You can override this setting via JavaScript (see example in login.js) if you want and you could make that override use different values for different levels.
