Hi, no one responded, so I just went and did this. I don't know how to
give the code back, but if you would like it, I'd be glad to provide
it. I ended up adding the session to the ServletInfoRequest class, and
overriding the getSession in there to return that session. It works,
but only if the JSSI servlet is in the same zone as the sub-servlet.
