Dear all,
It seems that drupal.org implements a way of automatically logout the users. I want to setup this feature on my site, could you please give me some feedback about this while I'm not sure in the settings I already did on my own site.
Regards,
Eric

Not sure about that ...
By now with safari on tiger, I'm logged out after less than a night without activity. Any advise ? eric
session + cookie
maybe your browser has special cookie settings ?
drupal starts a session, which sends a cookie to the browser (if it doesn exist already)
if the cookie is deleted --> session lost/closed
if the session lifetime (php setting) is over --> session lost/closed
on some hosts you can change the php settings for sessions

This is happenning to me
This is happenning to me too....
so if I change my .htaccess and add:
insted of the value by default which is 0.that accordind to the php.ini says:
; Lifetime in seconds of cookie or, if 0, until browser is restarted.
will make a change ?
settings.php
If you are using 4.6, then change the number of seconds the session cookie will be valid for.
This is the line that has session.cookie_lifetime in it.
For 4.5 and before, this can be done in .htaccess.

set cookie lifetime 0
in settings.php, change he value for
session.cookie_lifetime into
Then the sessionwill last until you close the browser.
