cannot disable iMac going to sleep

Question

cannot disable iMac going to sleep

My iMac frequently goes into sleep mode if nothing is done actively, but it does cancel e.g. photo uploads. This happens even if I set the sleep timer in the system menu to "never" under Energy. Screen saver is off. What am I doing wrong?

2,93 GHZ Inel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, iOS 10.8.5

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.4)

Ok, found it. It was auto log-off and not sleep mode. The auto log-off can be switched on and off under System Prefs, Security, General.
