Outlook Web Access Timeout?

[katchme]

Hi,

I'm wondering if I could set a timeout on outlook web access session from a browser? Fox example, if a user logs on to email via the browser, can I do some sort of configuration on Exchange 5.5 server to disconnect the session if it's left idle for 5 minutes?

thanks

Yes you can. It's a setting in IIS somwhere.... can't remember where.

From MS Knowledge Base:

XADM: Session Timeout Settings for Outlook Web Access
The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5

This article was previously published under Q173497
SUMMARY
In Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA), the session timeout defaults to 60 minutes for authenticated users and 20 minutes for anonymous users. This can be changed using the following registry entries: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeWeb\Parameters

AuthenticatedSessionTimeout
AnonymousSessionTimeout

Both are DWORD values and are in minutes
