timeout issue

[Felix_WafyTech]

Hello All,

I've set the timeout as 720 in the web.config file. But the website elapses
and displays the login screen in about 20 minutes. It doesn't seem to honor
the setting in the web.config file. I'm wondering what could be going wrong.
Any help is very much appreciated.

<system.web>
<sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="false" timeout="720"/>

<membership defaultProvider="SqlProvider" userIsOnlineTimeWindow="720">

<providers>

<remove name="AspNetSqlProvider"/>

<add name="SqlProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider"
connectionStringName="ConnectionString" enablePasswordRetrieval="false"
enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"
passwordFormat="Hashed" applicationName="/"/>

</providers>

</membership>

</system.web>

Thanks,
Felix.J
