I have the same issue, and it only started happening when I switched to the 
latest release of Apache Directory Studio.  When I was on version 
2.0.0.v20150606-M9, I was able to enter the master password once and it never 
asked for additional authentication after that.  Now it requires me to 
re-authenticate literally every few minutes.

I would say it depends on your server configuration. If you keep the connection 
open for a very long time, it's likely that the socket get automatically closed 
by the underlying OS.

Otherwise, there is no such thing as a connection timeout, beside the timeout 
we have when a request is sent and the client is waiting for a response - but 
this timeout does not close the connection, t just aborts the operation -.
