[mod_python] Newbie ?s regarding sessions

I am attempting to create a login page and want to get to a point where
I can do the following. A) Login a user and redirect to website's
index.html, on failure redirect to loginFailed.html. B) Maintain user
session for 3 minutes and then force the user to re-login  C) Once
logged in, if the user is in-active for more than 3 minutes, then force
the login page back again when the user takes some action.

 

Do I have to use authenHandler for this or can I just use publishHandler
combined with sessions and cookies. All suggestions are welcome.

 

Thanks,
Suren
