Due to audit of our client website the testing team told us that after login to admin pannel of website, if any user is idle for more than 5 min then it should redirect to login page.

I set the Session Lifetime to 5min in backend. But problem is this that its logout only when page refresh. Its should logout directly. I am tired too many thing but nothing work.. Please help. Thanks in advance

    I'm very surprised the audit didn't flag the use of Joomla 1.5.
