Login session timeout causing problems with dashboard

HI,

We have a wallboard which shows some Nagios dashboard items and "opscreen", but these items eventually go blank, as the login session times out.

Is it possible to modify the Nagios login session timeout value?

Cheers,

There is a setting you can modify in /etc/php.ini

Code: Select all

session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440
this is an amount of time in seconds.

then

Code: Select all

service httpd restart
