        Hi,
    No, there is not! You have to manage yourself
the timeout, for instance through a timestamp, which you verify on each request. PHP does not destry sessions by itself. Yes, it does, check your session.gc_maxlifetime setting (gc stands for garbage colector). You cannot change or set this setting per vhost or directory. If you want, you can manage the session yourself (see session_set_save_handler()) and implement your own expiration routines. Anothor thing that can affect session lifetime is the lifetime of session cookie, default is set by session.cookie_lifetime.
