Is there somewhere where I can tweak the timeout after someone logs in so that it is an hour? I'd like to not have to depend on the ISP to tweak the timeout for logged sessions.

Joe,
you can insert the following line into generated include\commonfunctions.asp file

Session.Timeout = 120



where 120is number of minutes you want the session to live after users's last click.
You can insert this just after "vDebug = false" line.

How can you have it never time out. Other than setting the time to some really long number.

Sessions are expire for good reason. If the setting is too long it can hog up the server's resources and slow everything down.
Instead of doing this you can implement some kind of "autologin" feature. From users point of view it looks exactly as session never expires.

Sergey - is this still valid in the current version of ASPRunnerPRO? I could not find the "vDebug = false" line in my commonfunctions.asp file. Thanks.
