We discussed this thing with an Allaire guy just last week. He said that
currently, you can't pass session variables around between clustered
servers. He did say that things can be set up so that users stick to the
server they come into - so you CAN set session variables, and said user will
just stay on that server for the duration of his session. The initial choice
of what server the user hits would naturally be determined by load
balancing...
