Relogin (::relogin)
Learn how to use the Relogin config.txt directive to specify the number of minutes after which a user must reauthenticate.
::relogin is used to specify the number of minutes after which a user must reauthenticate to continue accessing EZproxy. This can be used to ensure periodic reauthentication for security or compliance purposes.
Set ::relogin=0 to reset the value.
Caution: The ::relogin directive only works when it is placed in the user.txt file. It is not supported in shibuser.txt, as that file is only processed during initial login.
Note: This directive does not apply to Shibboleth authentication, as there is no way within the Shibboleth workflow to request a reauthentication from the Service Provider (SP).
