RE: [PHP] Session not timing outafter 180 minutes

There is another setting which affects this, gc_probability. This setting determines how often the garbage collection routine runs (that kills off old sessions). The default is 1, which means the gc runs on one out of every 100 hundred requests. So, if the server is not getting alot of requests, the gc routine doesn't run very often, and sessions last longer than the timeout value. Kirk
