    Default shell idle timer, how to change?

    Seems like I get disconnected when I'm idle via ssh for a certain unknown period. I'd like to change this idle timeout value but I can't seem to find how cpanel sets this.

    Does anybody know where its set? I checked sshd config file, but I didn't see anything there (unless I glossed over it?)

    Thanks.

    ** bump **

    Nobody has a clue, even the cpanel developers??? This idle timer is not a normal feature of RedHat and I would really like to change it or prevent it.

    Thanks.

    Nevermind. I've discoverd that this is happening because of my router connection timeout setting here at the house. I've gotten around it by setting putty to keep the connection alive every 60 seconds.
