Users are logged off every night

Users are getting logged off our ShraePoint 2010 site every night even if they click on log me in automatically?
I've checked that the Security validation for the web application and it is set to Never expire. I've also updated our web.config to include the timeout of 1 year for our custom login page.
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="/_layouts/CustomLogin.aspx" timeout="525600" />
</authentication>What am i missing? Is there a timer job that runs that logs people out every night? I can be on the site all day without a problem I come in the next day and I'm logged out. I've checked my IE settings and it's not logging me out. I've also tested IE by turn off my computer then going back to the site and I'm still logged in. It's just the next day that I'm no longer logged in.
Any help would be great.

Think I found the issue. Had to run the powershell script on this page to set the Security Token Timeout.
