sendRedirect problem on UNIX

[Nav Tomcat <na...@yahoo.com>]

We have the following configuration 

Servlet-Engine: Tomcat Web Server/3.3 dev (JSP 1.1;
Servlet 2.2; Java 1.2.2-6; OSF
1 V5.0 alpha; java.vendor=Compaq Computer Corp.)

My JSP code uses response.sendRedirect().

It works fine on  a NT box ( with tomcat 3.1) when we
tried to run on the UNIX box ( both on 3.1 & 3.2
beta), the session information was getting lost.


I found the following posting on the Tomcat server
which seemed to be a similar problem but i could not 
get the result as stated in the posting , the bug
still seems to exist in the Tomcat engine


Any help would be greatly appretiated.


Regards

Nav

This bug has been fixed in the current nightly builds
of Tomcat 3.2dev,
and
will be fixed in the final release.
