Java packages make no difference at all. The thing that matters are:
* Are they really in the same webapp? In other words, does the
URL you access them with both start with the same context path?
* Do you have cookies enabled? If not, are you using
URL rewriting (response.encodeURL()) correctly? (Note:
support for URL rewriting was added to Tomcat fairly
recently -- try it with the most recent 3.1 release candidate
or the final release when available).
