Linking Sessions

[SH Solutions <sh...@gmx.net>]

Hi

Is there a way to link a session?
I have the following scenario:

I have multiple domains on a server. Some links on these pages need to
switch to another domain, exspecially, when I need to switch to
ssl-protected sites, since all these virtual domains share the same ssl
domain (one ip only).

So my problem is, that inter-domain-links by default loose their session. Is
is a problem.
(Putting things into a shopping cart is okay, but when switching to ssl for
credit card information, the cart my not be lost.)

Now, I have special links, that lead to a servlet that puts every attribute
of the local session into a hashmap and jumps to another special servlet on
the other domain, which itself copies attributes from the hashmap back to
the new session.

This schema works, but it is a bottleneck in many ways.

So I am searching a way to link to a KNOWN session instead if creating a new
one.
Is there a way for this?

Regards,
  Steffen
