That's how it should work, if it doesn't work then there is an issue with your config\your hosting\or what you believe the definition of "activity" is.

It already works that way. What's the problem?

Perhaps your web.config has an error (e.g. sessionState node is not inside the system.web node)? Or value is being set in code elsewhere? Since I typically have session time-outs based on role, I set timeouts in the Global.asax file during the session's start event. Maybe try and set the value there? i.e.

C#

void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session.Timeout = 60; // sixty minutes
}
