It is up the servlet. As far as I know Tomcat cannot change this. As to how you get the servlet to use one or the other: I do not know enough about WEB programming to tell you.

One of the reasons I'd like to know is to see the behavior of method isNew() of HttpSession, which I can do if I'm able to disable cookies. As the Javadoc for HttpSession says: "A servlet should be able to handle cases in which the client does not choose to join a session, such as when cookies are intentionally turned off."
