I am using cookies for session tracking and using the JRE1.3
plug-in. I am not setting the cookie domain because my
development server is not part of a DNS domain. However, regular
html pages generated from servlets do not have any difficulty
maintaining the session.
There ought to be a way using the URLConnection object to set
the cookie. I can find out the session id quite easily from the
servlet and pass this to the applet as an applet parameter.

- Is your session using cookies or url rewriting?
- If cookies, is the original login domain the same as the
domain you're trying to access with the applet?
- Is your browser using the built-in jvm, or a plugin?
Theoretically, if your applet is using a URLConnection, and
your session is using cookies, and you're using the built-in
jvm on a relatively modern browser, the cookie should be
shared.
