Or, cou could add a static hashmap to your Servlet (or a bean if using JSPs) where you simply add the sessions with every request. You would have to put an attribute implementing javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionActivationListener in each session though, that removes the session from your hashmap when the session is expired or you will end up with having many invalid entries in your hashmap. (And I don't even know what happens if you keep the references to those Session objects when they are recycled by tomcat) We do this to keep track of our sessions within the application. A quick google revealed http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=12141 with example code. Once you have the list of sessions, it should be easy to expire the old ones for the same user... Though this will allow you to have only one session per user, it will not kill the session immediately after step 3. Using the reload as described above will do that, but prevents you from having a security-logout if the user just has his browser open all day (without actually doing anything).
