Hello,
Environment:
Apache 1.3.12, Apache JServ 1.1 on Win NT
Problem:
I am experimenting with Session management with cookies using the Servlet
API.The scenario is that if an un-authenticated user tries to invoke a
protected servlet he will be prompted to give his user-name and password.If
he is successfully authenticated, will be redirected to the servlet he
previously asked for.Here both the log-in credentials and the target servlet
information are stored as session objects.
This is working pretty well with Internet Explorer 4.0. But with Netscape
communicator 4.5 it is not working.
The same application I tried with Java web server and Netscape communicator
4.5,it's working pretty well.
So there seems to be some compatibility problem with Apache and Netscape
communicator versions that I am using as far as session management with
cookies is concerned
Please let me know what the problem is and should I make any configuration
changes?
When I use the Netscape communicator 4.5,apache access.log looks like:

There seems to be a change in the HTTP versions being used in each case.
Any solutions/help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
