You are correct in your interpretation of the existing implementation in Apache JServ
1.0 --
sessions are local to a zone, not global to the entire web server. This affects
session
management even on normal hyperlinks (not just redirects), and it does not matter
whether
you are using cookies or URL rewriting to maintain session ids.
It is not at all clear from the Servlet API spec whether this is compliant behavior or
not.
My understanding from reading messages on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing
list is
that this behavior is correct -- that sessions are supposed to belong to particular
servlet
contexts (which is also what Apache JServ calls a zone). This question is worth
asking on
the general list.
