Help Where is the screen lock timeout setting located?

Phone: Samsung Captivate from Rogers with Froyo 2.2

Where is the screen lock timeout setting located? I am not referring to he screen display timeout setting.

Example: I would like to set the screen lock timeout setting to 15 minutes, so that even if the screen turns off, if I press the power button, I am NOT prompted for a password, if I turn the screen on within 15 minutes.

Currently, whenever my screen turns off, after 2 minutes, when I turn on the screen again, it prompts me for the password again which is very annoying. Only if I immediately, press the power button after the screen turns off (like within 1 or 2 seconds) does it not prompt for the password again.

So where can I find the screen lock timeout setting? I do not see this setting listed in LOCATION AND SECURITY page.

Thanks.
 
On the Captivate the display timeout and lock timeout are the same.

You need Juice Defender to control those separately. Maybe there's a less sophisticated app to do this, but I never looked for one as I have JD.
