You can't "share" a session between CF and ASP.

However - here are some possible solutions.....

* Create a CFM page that requires a nice secret key (read GUID) that you have generated that you can pass information to set the session up and then get back the CFID and CFTOKEN that you can then pass over

* Use a WebService to communicate with the CFM instead of calling it directly and write all your CFM stuff as <CFCOMPONENTS> (assuming you are on CFMX)

* Always call your CFM stuff (via the <CFHTTP> equivalent in ASP) under HTTPS - this way your login information can be securely sent to the CFM stuff


And I am sure you can think of a bunch of other useful things along the same lines.
