For some odd reason the JSP session id is not being written to the
request object and therefore I get null pointer errors when I try to
reference session objects within a servlet. Please note that, I do not
want to send the client session in the URL. I tried several different
browsers IE, OmniWeb, Chimera, Mozilla. The problem seems to be
browser independent. Is this a Tomcat 4.1 security issue? I'm very
confused since I thought that JSPs provide behind the scenes session
management via cookies. Too make matters even stranger, every once in
a while the JSP will work correctly... I still haven't figured out the
reason... I guess every once in a while the client and server session
ids match by coincidence -ouch!
Here's a print out of my log messages (note that the request is passed
correctly, the dates below come from the client)
************************************************************************

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
