Hi,

        Thanks for all the replies - they're greatly appreciated. Sorry
for taking so long to get back, but I've been trying the solution
generously provided by Michael. This compiled and ran on the
webserver, which was a BIG step, and thank you for that. Unfortunately it
doesn't seem to keep individual sessions properly - if two users log in
simultaneously and make bookings, the servlet just overwrites the first
with the second, and there's just one user logged in. What I think you
could help with here is my interpretation of your code: the
USER_COOKIE_NAME is basically the session id here, right? So would I need
to generate a unique String value for this for each user? I'm not clear on
how to do that - at the moment it's just an unchanging static String -
which seems to me to be the most likely reason for the overriding of user
sessions. Here's hoping you can help as much as you did before!

        Thanks again, to the others too. Btw, if we were upgrading, we'd
just go straight to Apache+JServ (we've a lot of HTML generation, so JSP
would be nice but is not essential, plus I've heard Tomcat isn't quite up
to the standard of JServ yet - would this be right?). This is probably the
better option compared to NES + JRun (et al) or just upgrading NES yes?

        John
