Looking for a solution to automatically log out a site in asp.net when it is idle? Here's what you can do: Set the session timeout to 10 minutes in the web.config file under authentication. For instance, if the site has been idle for 9 minutes, you can bring it back to an active state. Then, restart the timer with a new session starting at 0:0:0. If the session exceeds the 10-minute limit, the site should log out automatically. Any ideas on how to achieve this? Please advise.
To achieve your goal, you can implement form authentication and adjust the session-timeout accordingly.
<configuration>
<system.web>
<sessionState timeout="10"></sessionState>
</system.web>
</configuration>
This configuration will set the session timeout to 10 minutes. If a request is made before the 10-minute mark, the timeout will be extended to a total of 10 minutes.

How to set session timeout in web.config
If you only want the session to last for exactly 10 minutes, you can include slidingExpiration="false" in your web.config file.

As explained on MSDN:
When the SlidingExpiration is set to true, the authentication
cookie's validity period is reset to the expiration Timeout property value if the user
browses the site after half of the timeout has passed. For example, with an expiration of 20
minutes using sliding expiration, a user might receive a cookie set to expire at 2:20 PM by visiting the site at 2:00 PM. The expiration is updated only if the user returns after 2:10 PM. If the user visits the site at 2:09 PM, the cookie isn't updated since half the expiration time hasn't elapsed. If the user returns after 12 more minutes, at 2:21 PM, the cookie will have expired.
It seems like there may be some confusion about your intentions. Why are the tags "javascript" and "ajax" attached to this question?
Session state doesn't always coincide with forms authentication. It's possible for me to have a persistent cookie from your site, allowing me to send authenticated requests regardless of how long the site remains idle. Even if you restart the site or app pool, I would still remain logged in.
If you want users to be automatically logged out after 10 minutes of inactivity while using Forms Authentication, you can issue a cookie that expires after 10 minutes, as shown in the web.config example below.
<forms
timeout="10">
</forms>
If you want to "reset" the expiration time, you can use sliding expiration in the web.config like this:
<forms
timeout="10"
slidingExpiration="true">
</forms>
There are several other values you can specify for forms authentication. Refer to the MSDN documentation for more information.

It appears there may be some confusion. I hope this clarification helps, my friend.
