Session Timeouts

[BillGatesFan]

Which Session Timeout property is used by default.

Is it the one in IIS (900 seconds)

Machine.config (20 mins)

or

Web.config (20 mins)

Could someone explain how this works.
Or is it IIS just because that ends first?

Thanks

asp.net does not use the IIS session - these are for classic asp

true session timeout only occurs with the inproc session manager running in
your app domain. for its configuration it defaults to machine.config, but
web.config overrides it , like all settings (unless overriding
machine.config has been disabled).

BillGatesFan..
I have also asked this question once..
But after my research..i think Web.Config..overrides all of them.
