Albert:
I don't know about using cookies vice other methods. I do know that the cookie method is not allowed in the DOD environment (no persistant cookie is allowed per Federal Law unless you have a legal review and a privacy page which describes in detail what you are doing with that cookie and why.)
I think that you may actually get away with using variable tokens, which are not persistant from session to session and may prove more reliable. I don't have all of the details, but it involves setting a variable that will be handed off from form to form.
You might also look into application level login pages. I don't know if Mid-Tier 6.3 supports this or not, but it should.

Subject: Re: Customized login and logout page
David,
it works if you have just _one_ application on _one_ Mid-Tier Server. My
problem is that we have to manage _several_ applications on _one_
Mid-Tier server. Each application should have a different login and
logout page.
Regards,
Albert
