Being kick from backend within a few seconds of idling

[nghi]

PW is logging me out after idling after a few seconds. Not sure why this is happening to me all of the sudden.

Is there a setting somewhere to prevent this?

You mean you're literally not clicking anything - as in it's automatic whether you touch your keyboard and mouse or not? Or is it just when you click to another page?

Have you upgraded your installation or installed any modules on the site between the time it was working fine to now?

I'm just trying to rule out a few things.

Might be dynamic IP, try setting $config->sessionFingerprint = false;

I think i jump the gun on this question, It fixed itself after a few hours. So I think my router/isp may have been acting up during work hours. Not really sure what was going on but I have set the fingerprint to false not sure if it will help if the problem arises again.

sessionFingerprint is a great security feature - if your connection works with it enabled, I really suggest keeping it installed.
