We would like certain core users to be always logged in, but others should log in only when they really need to be. This is to avoid collisions given our limited number of seats.
Also, it would be great if the secondary users (the ones with no auto login) could be logged out after 30 mins of inactivity but the core (hard-core?) users would never be logged out automatically.
So basically I'm wondering if there's a way to set the Auto Login feature and the 30 Minute Logoff feature to be active for some users but not for others. AFAICT they are only switchable globally.
OK, for the auto login I found the answer on the KB:
Yes it is possible. Open the Enterprise PDM administration tool >Settings on each client PC and specify the automatic login information.
I haven't tried it yet (we haven't done our rollout yet) but this seems straightforward enough.
