4.4 Changing the default global time-out

End users can authenticate to LiveCycle through Workbench, LiveCycle web applications, or custom applications that invoke LiveCycle server services. One global time-out setting is used to specify how long such users can interact with LiveCycle (using a SAML-based Assertion) before they are forced to reauthenticate. The default setting is two hours. On a production environment, the amount of time needs to be reduced to the minimum number of minutes acceptable.
