3 Modify any of the following fields:
Timeout for Inactive Sessions: When a user logs in, the WebAccess Application opens a
session with the user. This option lets you specify a period of time after which the WebAccess
Application closes a session that has become inactive. A session becomes inactive when the
user does not perform any actions, such as opening a message, that generate calls to the
WebAccess Application. Having a timeout period not only provides security for user e-mail but
also ensures that GroupWise WebAccess runs efficiently.
Select how long the WebAccess Application should wait before ending an inactive session. If
the user attempts to perform an action after the session has timed out, he or she is prompted to
log in again.
Path for Inactive Sessions: Browse for and select the folder where you want the WebAccess
Application to save information about inactive sessions. This allows the WebAccess
Application to return the user to the exact state he or she was in when the session timed out.
Inactive sessions are automatically deleted after a period of time.
The default path is to the users directory, located in the WebAccess Application's home
directory, which varies by platform.
NetWare:
OES Linux:
SLES:
Windows:
Use Client IP in Securing Sessions: Select this option if you want the WebAccess Application
to bind the client IP address to the session. For that session, the WebAccess Application accepts
requests from the bound IP address only. If you are using a proxy server that masks the client IP
address, you should use the Use Cookies option instead.
