Tweaking php For Maximum Execution Time For Scripts

I‘ve been trying to migrate my webblogs using Wordpress inbuilt import facility. I’ve exported current blog as a xml file and downloaded to my desktop. Next I navigated to my new blog’s admin area and clicked on Manage > Import. However import failed after importing 50-60% posts only.

I went through Apache and PHP log files and I realized that the script was timed out. How do I fix this problem under Linux / UNIX?
