> I'm running Tomcat 5.5.9 on Redhat 9 and use session to track user logging
> in/out. The session timeout is set to 30m in web.xml. After some testing, I
> noticed that some of the inactive sessions timeout as expected after 30m,
> while others hang there for ever and never timeout. Is this a known problem?
> Will upgrade to the latest tomcat version fix it? Thanks a lot for your
> feedback!
