Transmission Webclient Session Times

Post by jtfairbank »

Hey guys,

I was wondering if I could set the session times for the Transmission webclient. Specifically, I want it to ask me to re-authenticate every 24 hours. Any idea how to do this? I looked through settings options and didn't see anything like that. If there is no option to set this, what is the default session time?

Cheers,
jt

The session time-out for web applications is usually measured by when the last request was made by the browser. And since the browser makes requests all the time to get updates on the torrents this can't be used for timing out the browser. Special code has to be written to measure and report user interaction to the web server which it can then use for timing out the user.
