Can anyone offer any information on how to configure Tomcat so that sessions never timeout? In the web.xml for my application I have specified:

<session-config>
<session-timeout>-1</session-timeout>
</session-config>

This does not work however. It appears that Tomcat reverts back to the default of 30 minutes. Any information or help would be much appreciated.
