    <description>&lt;P&gt;Based on that answer, I think you are looking for a value for ui_inactivity_timeout of less than 1. &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;From the docs:  &lt;A href="http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0/admin/Configureusertimeouts" target="_blank"&gt;http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0/admin/Configureusertimeouts&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;If ui_inactivity_timeout is set to less than 1, there's no timeout -- the session will stay alive while the browser is open. &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I also found this previous answer on the topic:&lt;/P&gt;

      <title>Splunk timeouts</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi guys,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;We would like to assign role-based timeouts for users for Splunk.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;There are a few admin AND non-admin users for whom, we would not like the session to expire by itself. &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Are role based or rather, user-specific timeouts possible ?&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;~~~&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;If not, is there a way to "abolish" timeouts for all users everywhere ? &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Based on the research I have done, I believe that it is possible (by setting the ui_inactivity_timeout to 1, see below)&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Do you all agree with this observation ? &lt;/P&gt;</description>
