So... I have this problem that after an hour or so of inactivity my account is logging off.

Since I'm doing some stuff AFK on the night I want it to not log off? Is there a setting I can change somewhere?

I am assuming you are accessing this server remotely via remote desktop
Check your timeout settings for Terminal Services:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/...

Also from your home PC if you are utilizing Remote Desktop to access this server, you can log in as a console user, instead of a RDP

Up to XP SP2 / Vista - Start>run>mstsc IP /console

XP SP3 / Vista SP1 - Start>run>mstsc IP /admin

Thanks for any input.
