    Multiple session from the same host apache/php

    We run a thin client system at work, which basically means, all users connecting to our intranet machine, have the same IP address. Would this be a problem for said intranet machine when it comes to handling sessions for each of the users accessing it.

    I ask, because peoples sessions with the intranet seem to drop off after 5 minutes of inactivity, sometimes longer (which means they have to log back in). PHP on the intranet is set so the timeout is 0 (ie when the user closes their browser) and sessions are stored as files in /tmp and cookies from the user side.

    Is there anything else I can try to stop the sessions dropping?

    Cheers!

    I think you're problem lies elsewhere. By default PHP will register the sess ID in a cookie unless you have use_cookies off. You could check the cookies on the clients to see whether they have the same sess ID (unlikely). With server access you could of course check the sess save_path directory.
    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.
