Setting in the Tomcat (?) props should do it. I would go this route unless it gives
you problems, then you could hardcode it (or put the value in a properties file,
load it at startup time and call setMaxInactiveInterval to set it manually). Of
course, if the value has major significance for you application, I would consider
not setting it in your servlet engine config, because you'd want to embed that
configuration in your app explicitely (so in that case I would go the hardcoded or
app properties file route).
