Hi,

I hope this is the right list to ask; if not, please direct me to a better place...

We're currently integrating a couple of web sites under a single domain. Some of the sites run on separate Tomcats, others use PHP, Perl or a number of proprietary systems. We believe that having multiple containers use the same session cookie will lead to problems.

So we assumed that we could just configure each container to use a separate cookie. However, the specification points out in section SRV.7.1.1SRV.7.1.1 that "[t]he name of the session tracking cookie must be JSESSIONID."

I'd like to understand the rationale for this requirement. If the container manages the session, why would an application care about the actual mechanism used to track the session? Why can this not be made configurable?


Thanks,
Stefan
