Solution 1

If you are using ASP.net In-proc session, this is always possible that the session timeout value you set will not behave as expected.
To solve this either user out-proc session (using State server/SQL server).

Another thing you should keep in mind is that the configuration can force the application pool to be recycled. If you have In-Proc sessions they will be ended when the corresponding application pool associated with the application is recycled. Here is some info about that: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/1eee28e2-b319-4b4e-8267-a8c0aa0dcf36.mspx?mfr=true[^]. For more pages just google "application pool recycling".

Cheers!
