Setting the timeout to 0 indicates no timeout - therefore it is set to
MAX_INT (closest it can get to infinity). Setting timeout to 1 is the
lowest you can go I think.

Subject: RE: Disabling sessions
Hi,
Looks like this isn't true. We don't call getSession
anywere in our code and still the cookie appears every time
the application is used.
Also, to correct my own mistake - it looks like ServletExec
doesn't allow setting of the timeout to 0. When it is set
manually by editing the web.xml file the GUI shows MAX_INT.
Same when it is attempted to set the timeout to 0 via the GUI,
"submit" simply rewrite the field's value to MAX_INT.
Thanks,
--Amos
