ASP.NET IIS Timeout

I have a web application... sessions timeout after the default 20 mins
requiring the users to re-login... getting lots of complaints. What's best
approach around this? I have other sites running on this server so raising
the session.timeout is not a good option...

You can increase the Session Timeout for this application alone by
changing the Session Timeout option in Web.Config

or

you could have a hidden frame that refreshes a page just to keep the
Session alive using the HTTP Refresh header. With this you do not have
to depend on the Server, but the more users who leave the application
logged in, the more resources yous Server will consume.
