Hi Ricardo
The default session timeout for Tomcat on an Ubuntu server is 30 mins.
This is a security feature IMHO - open and unattended workstations where an
admin is logged in are DANGEROUS.
To change it - just search for "tomcat session timeout" on Google for help.
Perhaps someone on the list will provide a step-by-step guide.
Cheers
