I don't want my machines to sleep or hibernat >From / # find . | grep sleep.conf$ ./usr/lib/systemd/sleep.conf ./etc/systemd/sleep.conf One shows defaults, and other is the real one. Don't recall which is which. Bold lines are the changes I make to turn off. Note it is showing 60 minutes, so you might be checking before it kicks in. I have machines running things link http, ftp, vnc and others so having machines go to sleep is bad. Some machines are 18 timezones away, so had to be people to manually wake them up. Now everything is OK. Updated a local machine here, and it went to sleep? The upgrade from 43 set the sleep.conf in both places to original, so on that machine I switched both to my settings. Hope that helps. # cat /usr/lib/systemd/sleep.conf;cat /etc/systemd/sleep.conf # This file is part of systemd. # # systemd is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the # terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free # Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) # any later version. # # Entries in this file show the compile time defaults.
