administrator: how can I force user log-off?
Hi, a few registered users on my web have some kind of auto-reload tweak in web-browser, which forces them to be "online" forewer. Is there any way to log them off manually (as administrator)? Or how could I prevent this behaviour? Jarry -- _______________________________________________________________ This mailbox accepts e-mails only from selected mailing-lists!

You might want to see how long the session cookie has been in the database and delete after x hours or days. They'd lose their session and have to manually log back in. Since http is a connection oriented protocol, the only way to really disconnect is by killing the socket. -Don- On 7/29/2011 3:11 PM, Jarry wrote:

In settings.php, you can define how long a cookie is good for. Once it expires, they must log in again. The standard setting is 3 weeks and 2 days, so they may not have an auto-reload -- they just aren't being bounced off. You can also set this to 0 and have the cookie get deleted when they close the browser. Nancy Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. -- Dr. Martin L. King, Jr.

This is fine but when the PHP garbage collection is not in place or misconfigured it won't work as expected. Well there is a module for that http://drupal.org/project/session_expire
