AFAIK The only way you will keep your ColdFusion sessions active is to use session rep at the server side.

I'd recommend using UUID for CFToken if you were to do this though. - owen [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hello, > > My immediate requirement is to have failover for our cf web server. > > I have a couple of servers that could be using Hardware Load Balancing.
