Re: [PHP-DEV] php4 - removing outdated session files From: Greg Kelley (gkelley <email protected>)

I have set session.gc_maxlifetime = 600 and restarted apache, started a
session, see the session file in /tmp, but it's still there after 30
minutes. Any other Ideas? Thanks...running under Linux RH6.0 and
everything else seems OK.
