You seem to be referring to HttpSession objects, which are not cookies. Session objects are created when a user is authenticated or when a webapp chooses to create a session. An identifier (JSESSIONID) for the Session is passed back to the client (browser) either via a cookie or as part of the URLs embedded in the response. Whether or not the browser chooses to accept or persist the cookie is up to the browser, not Tomcat. > What are JSESSIONID, session, are those cookies? Sounds like you need some basic education; try the servlet spec first: http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/mrel/jsr154/index2.html Wikipedia has definitions and examples of standard computing terms such as cookie. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
