Before possibly reinventing a wheel, I'm wondering if anyone who uses 
application-level authentication on HTTP app servers has an elegant way of 
having a user log in once on one server and then be transparently logged in 
when 
accessing others. For example, I have an app server on port 8080 and another on 
port 8081. User XYZ logs in to port 8080, and then clicks on link pointing to 
the server on port 8081. The session-based login on 8080 isn't available to the 
app server on port 8081, so a second login is required.

Is there an admin function that allows retrieval of session information for a 
given user within a given app server, such that it could be used to determine 
whether a user should be considered "logged in" for purposes of the second app 
server?
