I wouldn't recommend that, but you could. The setting to 600 is fine, but I wouldn't adjust the probability. Like I said, if you need a hard and fast 10 minute rule, then keep track of the time yourself within your session. $_SESSION['last_access'] = time(); If the session variable doesn't exist or it's been over 10 minutes (600 seconds) since the last access, then make them log in again or whatever. ---John Holmes...
