user types in mysite.com, is redirected to mysite.com/login.jsp user submits, form submission goes to mysite.com/access/login login servlet, upon successs, redirects to www.mysite.com/index.jsp
if you have this situation (others might be typing www.mysite.com so they wouldn't have the problem) what happens is that seeing that it's a new url the user gets a new session, a new session id, and therefore is not registered as being logged in.
there are actually many ways to solve this - here are a few:
make sure all users end up with the same url (using redirects from the start)
set cookies to work for *.mysite.com (can u do that with session ids? not sure)
prepend all links with whatever the requested domain name is
use all relative links
use all full links consistently
hope that helps.

{ -------- Billy Ng was saying -------- }:
This may be a tomcat question, but I don't find any help there.
One of the customers complains they get bounced back to login page after they logged in and click on any button. This only happens on IE 6 SP-1, but not Netscape. My best guess is the sessioned cookie never been set so that the app returns user back to login page. Anyone have seen this before?
Thanks!
