.... I have a 64-bit CentOS 5.6 VM running on a 64-bit FC14 host. I 
notice that it has an automatic logout feature after a period of 
idleness, see below:

I checked man pages on both host & VM, but came up blank. I have another 
box running CentOS 5.6 native & it doesn't do this, so I suspect it is 
something w/ the VM environment. How do I disable that :-) ? Thanks in 
advance.
