Leave an inactive session open for 24 hours? What is your logic for that? I have a system where people log in and deal with client interviews. Running for an hour without doing anything on the caller system is not unusual, so we opt for 2 hours. More often than not a time-out is due to someone forgetting to log out rather than them still interviewing and since the offices tend to be closed by 8PM everything is cleared down before midnight. But that is a special case, and 24 minutes is just as good as any other limit for a shorter time-out. An hour would only be appropriate if the user work flow needs it. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
