this is what the browser does.
in order for the browser to send the cookie to the server, the URL needs to be the same.
That is the domain-name/ip, port and path.

so, http://my.server.com:8080/ is different from http://my.server.com:8081/

I have question about http redirect and the way tomcat manage sessions. I have two servers, S1 and S2. The user is already connecting to S1 (I have a session in S1 with the user already), then he goes to S2 (have a session in S2 as well).

On S2, he clicks on a link which redirects to a page on S1. The issue here is:

1. If S1 and S2 uses the same port number (e.g. 8080), I can get back the same session of the user in S1 when I receive the redirect on S1.

2. If S1 and S2 uses different port numbers (e.g. 8080 on S1, and 9090 on S2), when a redirect comes in on S1, I can never get the same session. I get a totally new session.

Why? What's the issue here? Could someone enlighten please?

Thanks a lot.
