One thing, though, is to make sure you've disabled Bash's autologout feature, if you're using that.What's this?
"To make the bash shell automatically logout after not being used for a period of time, set the variable TMOUT to the time in seconds of no input before logout. This can be particularly useful in improving security if people forget to logout or leave their terminals unattended."
Ex. : >TMOUT=3600 ; export TMOUT where 3600 represents the number of seconds of inactivity. Cheers, LdS
