Ok, it might be your shell. Bash, for example, has a variable called
TMOUT. Do the following command and see if it returns anything (if you are
using the bash shell):
echo $TMOUT
>From the bash manpage:
TMOUT If set to a value greater than zero, the value is
interpreted as the number of seconds to wait for
input after issuing the primary prompt. Bash ter
minates after waiting for that number of seconds if
input does not arrive.
