Tomcat and SessionHandling

["Preuss, Jacqueline - ENCOWAY" <Pr...@encoway.de>]

Hi, I'm new here!

 

Generally, I'm new in the topic servlets etc. so I hope I can explain my problem well.

 

In our company we work with some web applications running in Internet Explorer. We want to use Tomcat as servlet engine / webserver. The problem is the session handling of Tomcat. For the application the user authenticates with username, password and domain (i.e. windows authentication). The user can select different items in the application e.g. quotes. Every quote is opened in a new browser window. If we use Tomcat, all quotes of the user are saved under the same session, i.e. the session id is always the same. That's a problem for us, because we need a new session for every single quote. So, is there a possibility to implement our own session handling for Tomcat. If yes, how? What would you suggest? Can we use a filter for tomcat the renew or clear the session?

 

I hope this is the right place to post. Thanks for help.

 

Regards,

Jacqueline Preuß.
