Hi,

I have an issue with J2EE session and the incorrect session cookies
being sent by IE.

I manage a CF site with name like myhost.mysubdomain.site.com.  There
is another CF site named mysubdomain.site.com.  We both have J2EE
sessions enabled.

In IE 6 (not Firefox), if a user browses first to mysubdomain.site.com
to a page that generates a session, then they get a session cookie set
with host domain.site.com.  If they then, go to my site to a page that
creates a session, they get a session cookie set with host
myhost.mysubdomain.site.com.

But, when I redirect them to another page on my site, IE sends back to
the server the cookie for mysubdomain.site.com, not
myhost.mysubdomain.site.com.  The net results is that the user can
never create a session on myhost.mysubdomain.site.com unless they
don't first browse to mysubdomain.site.com.

It seems like I can work around this by turning off J2EE sessions, but
that is unfortunate, and I'm still not sure there aren't some security
issues with the wrong cookies being sent.

Any suggestions on how to make this work with J2EE sessions?  I have
tried about every possible permutation of <cfapplication> settings
with no luck.

Thanks,
Jon
