I'm not sure why your P cookie isn't showing up, but the JSESSIONID cookie
is a session cookie so it is only maintained in RAM and never gets written
to disk. If you don't set the max age, the cookie only lives for the
current session.
To figure out why the P cookie isn't working, turn on cookie warnings on
your browser and make sure your browser actually got the cookie. Mozilla
(and NS 6.x) has a menu option for viewing cookies that are in RAM or on
disk.
