Sorry I should clarify few things:

In case of no failover, SSO works for all web applications on the same node, 
not host.  Then, session replication upon failover works for non-password 
protected area only.

Hi Andrew

In case of no failover, SSO works for all web applications on the same host.  
Upon failover [shutting down one node], a user is routed to the other node, and 
TC is asking for a user to re-login when he/she tried to access password 
protected area.  

I have checked many times on server.xml and session replication is working fine 
upon failover, so I cannot think any misconfiguration on server.xml
The issue is SSO failover is not working.  I think it might be related to my 
apache virtual host setup, but could not figure it out.

Thanks for your help,
yasushi

Oh sorry, I re-read your answer.  Not sure why SSO is not working, be
interested to find out though..
