How to change timeout for delogging inactive users?

Hello all,

Does anybody know how to change the default timeout after which inactive users get automatically logged out?

Additionally, I have a minor but irritating bug: when I open the 1st time in my browser (IE or firefox) the bugnet's main page, I reach the AccessDenied.aspx instead of the welcome page, with the message: "Access Denied. The resource you have requested is unavailable or you do not have the proper access rights." Do you know what could be wrong or where to look at?

Thks,
Chris

BugNET Documentation -> Support -> Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. My users are always having to log back into the application. How can I fix this?

A. The default timeout for session in ASP.NET 2.0 is 30 minutes. You can configure the length of the timeout by editing the web.config file with code below setting the timeout value in minutes.

... But there ist no code.

Maybe: timeout: 120 min

          <forms name="BugNET" loginUrl="~/Default.aspx" timeout="120"/>
        </authentication>
