Hi,

I installed the latest PVE on Debian/lenny.
I login the web console and leave it be, after a while, it always times out and I have to login again. Is it impossible to stay connected to the web UI all the time?
 
I see, but if possible, will you please improve PVE so that end-users can control active session's period, i.e. an hour, a day, a week or forever?
 
lets see, but in any case, forever makes no sense as this is a major security issue.
 
Yes, regarding to forever, I think, for example, it's preferable that forever option should be effective only if being accessed from the preassigned ip.
Thanks.
 
what is your use case for 'forever'?
 
I mean that PVE will never disconnect a login session until an administrator will logout or close his/her browser if once he/she logins.
 
I understand what you mean but i do not see the reason why you want this. Auto-disconnect is what you want in 99 % of the cases, so what use case do you have that you need a forever living session?
 
The current settings of the session period is too short for me. If it become to be under the control with end-users, 'forever' is not an important factor. ;)
 
It's nice! This auto-reloader just resolved my problem...but it seems to hardly be an essential solution...?
