If it's CFMX for J2EE, it could be running on any one of several different J2EE app servers (JRun, WebSphere, WebLogic, SunONE, etc.).
The only reason a J2EE app server would set the jsessionid cookie again is if it didn't see the first cookie. Check your http headers and see if you can see what's happening. We had a case of running a CFMX app on WebSphere and a Java app on Oracle's 9iAS app server - each app server wanted to set its own "jsessionid" cookie, so the browser ended up losing the session everytime it went from one to the other. We ended up setting a flag in the database to tell if there was an active session for that user, so he could go to the one app on WebSphere or the other app on Oracle.
