I guess changing the cookie name can help here: org.apache.catalina.SESSION_COOKIE_NAME See: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/systemprops.html Note that this is per jvm setting ,so all the apps on the given server will get this cookie name . Which in turn is probably NOT a problem as Christopher have already pointed out. Evgeny
