Hi Martin,

thanks for your reply :)

I found the website of your company and after reading your references, now i
am really confident that the session manager would be able to handle our
load :)

Now the only thing left to do is the persuasion of our development team,
since they have the position, that this kind of session sharing is
impossible.

thanks again,
christian
