When I came back the session was timed out, and I was required to login. Something still isn't working right. Any ideas? I have checked the settings using phpinfo() and confirmed that the values are in fact being set by the above commands. -- Aaron
My mistake, gc_maxlifetime is in seconds, i meant to say that, but i said it was in minutes :) if you change this: ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', $mytimeout / 60); back to ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', $mytimeout); It will work i guess :) Tijnema
