How to increase page timeout

After logging into my web site, it seems that I time out at around 10~15
minutes.

What setting should be changed in web.config to increase the timeout to say,
3 hours?
Can this value be set programmatically?
What is the maximum value allowed ?

Thanks for any direction,
Mort
