In addition to the standard `unset autologout`, are you going through a
proxy/firewall/NAT-something?
If so, you might want to try uping tcp timeout values. I had a problem
like that and fixed with ( I was using ipchains):
/sbin/ipchains --masquerading --set 99999 200 300
Can someone on this list tell me why autologout is set by default?
I can see it as being useful in some cases, but I would think
most people would find it more annoying than useful.
