my dietpi install updated yesterday. now on the login it just asks for my password where before it would ask for username and password. it also would ask if I wanted to have the login last for 7 days. now I do not see that option and the login only lasts for like an hour or so. how can I change this from the browser interface to get it back to 7 days?
What application you are talking about? There is no feature like this on SSH at least
I am talking about when i use the control panel via a web browser. you have to login from there.
You mean dietpi dashboard?
yes I do. sorry I am not a geek. I just want my password to stop expiring after an hour
In the config file (/opt/dietpi-dashboard/config.toml) there is an option expiry to change this time frame. The default is 3600 seconds.
So for one week, comment it out and set it to 604800:
expiry = 604800
someone on reddit posted a fix using the web UI. in advanced settings there is a way to accomplish the same thing. I set it to 30 days. thank you for your response.
