Hello,

how do I track sessions without using cookies or URL-writing?
Following the Servlet API 2.3, the third way to track sessions is by using the SSL-Layer to hold the ID. I have tried that out with my installation (Apache 2.0.47, mod_jk2, Tomcat 5.5.4) and followed the
configuration hints about mod_jk and ssl.
However, using form-based authentication, the server seems not to save any session id as an attribute, ssl or anything. In Bugzilla there was something about using request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.key_size") which would "activate" another attribute which one should get with request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.ssl_session").
I tried that out - no effect.

Does someone use session tracking under SSL with a similar configuration like mine above? How do you set/access
the session id and get hold of the Session (or SSLSession)?

Thank you in advance,
