Okay I know it's got nothing to do with CF, but somebody here probably has an 
idea.

A mate of mine is running actinic on his Win2003 / IIS6 server, and providing a 
digital download (via actinic) which has a large filesize (approx 80Mb).

When payment is taken, Actinic creates a time limited link to allow the user to 
download the file. The link is to a perl script with a query string, so 
presumably it works like cfcontent. 

Unfortunately it's timing out for users with slower connections. By slower, I 
mean slow "broadband" connections. I'm not sure how long it takes because I've 
not had a chance to go through the logfiles, but they get about 30Mb before it 
craps out. 

I've tested the download myself without error, so I can only assume that it's 
the Perl script that times out after a certain time. I guess this must be built 
in to stop runaway processes, which is great in principle, but no good if 
somebody's going to take 10 or 20 minutes to download a file.

Question is, can that timeout be changed? If so, how?

Any ideas?

Cheers
Taz
