I have checked several threads and still cannot find what I'm looking for. I'm relatvley ne to asp. There seems to be an ongoing challenge with all developers when they attempt to set the session timeout using the IIS6 configuration manager.

The asp page ignores the setting. I have tried several adjustments (over 20 days) and still cant get the session timeout to respond. I disabled any session settings on the asp pages itself and restarted the entire server with no result.

These 2 options seems to be a real challenge in ASP

Session timeouts and page caching

I set the session time out to 1 minutes in IIS6

But I cant tell if its working because I cant seem to disable page caching on the page itself.

I have tried over 20 different cache and pragma statement variations with no result.

Can someone provide some click per click instructions on :

setting session timeouts and disable caching on the asp page.

Thanks in advance

I was told not to disable cache on the server -it would slow thing down too much.
 
You can use session.sessionID() to verify a new session.

Use session.abandon() to exit the current session and start a new one.

***

response.write session.sessionID()
