Sorry Steve,
one information isnt right! First, using Sniffer to monitor all http
traffic, i found out one important news: the authentication app's plugin
works with Session object instead of Cookie object. What kind of information
would you like to receive about it? Does Session object work different
between OC4J and TomCat?

This does not change any of the previous discussion.  The problem
hinges on the answers to two questions:

>> What are the values used for domain, path, and name when the cookie
>> is set?

>> What are the values used for domain, path, and name when the cookie
>> is deleted?

If you can demonstrate that the same set of values are used in both
cases, then this sounds like it would be a tomcat problem.  You can
examine the Set-Cookie headers sent by the server to see whether this
is the case.

Otherwise, this is an issue that should be raised with the vendor who
provided the authentication plugin.
