I've noticed that the login cookie does not last

forever, but I'd like to extend its life a bit, maybe to a week or so.
I noticed that in include/DefaultSettings.php there is a line
$wgCookieExpiration = 2592000;
which if it's in seconds would be 30 days. However my login cookie never gets
set for that long. Any ideas why that may be?
That's for the "save my password" cookie and such.
The login session cookie expires at the end of the browser session.
There may also be a session expiration timeout; check your PHP
configuration about that.
