New connection joining existing session

[Tim Penhey <ti...@penhey.net>]

I have a web application that uses Java Web Start to do nice printing from the client
machine.

As a parameter to the web start application is an URL which the locally executed java app
hits to get the data (normally in XML), which is most likely protected by a JDBCRealm
which the user has already authenticated against.

Is it possible to pass a session id as part of the URL?  Would that be sufficient for an
independant connection?

Answering my own question...

Yes, just do the same as the url rewriting by adding
;jsessionid=${pageContext.session.id} to the end of the URL.
