OK, I have a servlet running alongside my Struts application and it is basically used to start (from the init() method) a separate network listener for handling network requests from a number of PLC units that are incapable of generating HTTP traffic, only straight socket connections, blasting a wierd protocol called DF1 and then waiting for a reply.
We have all of that working. But now we want to store a piece of information in the servlet session so that we can load-balance on a WAS cluster. When we call back into the servlet to store the information, our session information is null. My question is ... when does a servlet get a session and can we force one from the init method? This servlet never gets called, so we never have an HttpSession. Can we force it to create an HttpSession? Simon ----------------------------------------------------------------- Simon P.
