So, ColdFusion does not keep the J2EE session and ColdFusion session timeouts in sync? Can I assume then that, if J2EE session management is enabled and the session timeout is changed programmatically, you could run into these types of problems as well? If this is the case, then it would seem that a server hosting multiple sites for third part developers (or any application that programmatically sets the session timeout) should not use J2EE session management. I've never seen this mentioned in the docs. In fact, I went looking for reasons not to enable J2EE session management. When I didn't find any, I wondered why Macromedia gave us the option and assumed that it had to do with backwards compatibility.
