Topic: administrator timeout remotely but not locally??

Has anyone heard of this?

I'm very new to CMS technology and programming in general.

When trying to make changes to the site, I can only access the administrator page locally without getting booted. If I try to access the administrator site from home, the site times out VERY quick.

My session save path is set to c:\temp and it's currently writing succesfully on my server.

Any clue? Any tips or hints are appreciated.
