We are experiencing some form of timeout when editing a record. It *appears* to be approx 15-20 minutes. If you don't save within that time (not preview but save) then when you do save it says you are not logged in.
I have been searching through wiki for this value but have not found it anywhere.
Is this a wiki thing? The server admin does not know what it might be and points to the wiki <G> until I point him to something else
Ideas??

Are you using the "remember me" option when logging in? If so, you should be able to start editing a page, leave the computer, and come back in a month and save your edit.
I guess it could be some sort of session problem: http://www.mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2116
Thanks for the reply .. I do use remember me but I believe that is more for log in credentials not for a 'time out' function.
In all the instances reported on that link the user logged in couldn't save. That isn't the issue here as we can edit .. it just forgets that you are logged in after a while. AS if the session cookie timed out. MW defines a very long time.
