As long as the following conditions are met, the session ID will be the
same:

* Both servlets are part of the same web application (i.e.
  part of the same ServletContext).

* The client has not exited their browser in between
  the two calls (which wipes out any session cookies).

* The client has cookies enabled, or you have used
  URL rewriting to make sure that the session ID is
  passed correctly on the next request.
