Thnaks for your councils, but really to obtain this information (i.e The cookie JSESSIONID in the request is it always valid.) I mostly prefer asking it to Tomcat than to create a probably incomplete mechanism on Apache. (And personnally I think that adding an interface to obtain an information already existing in a java code is much easier than recreating a mechanism in a C project in order to obtain the same information :) )
So, I reformulate my question differently : Do you know the name of the structure/object managing Tomcat's cookies in a cluster? Or how does Tomcat make to know if cookie is valid?
