Re: RHN Hosted web session expires too quickly

I did the following:

- installed the Greasemonkey add-on in Firefox
- added the following user script:

window.addEventListener(
    'load',
    function() { document.forms[0].submit(); },
    true);

- to the URL : https://www.redhat.com/wapps/sso/rhn/login.html?redirect=*

Now every time the login page appears, it instantaneously log in (since I
left my login+pass saved in FF secured by a master password).
