randomFile in SessionIdGenerator TC3.3B1

[Bill Barker <wb...@wilshire.com>]

    I just lost half an hour of my life trying to set up TC3.3B1 on a
Windows box because I forgot to remove the randomFile attribute on
SessionIdGenerator.  For the benefit of us under-priviledged people who have
to live on systems like Windows and Solaris, could this attribute please be
moved to the comment in the default server.xml?

What's going on ? SessionIdGenerator does check if this file exist - which
on windows does not - and does nothing.

Do you get any errors, or is there something broken ??
