Mmm. It would appear I can only get the session if the value is defined in the Context in server.xml. Ie I cannot define it in the default location in server.xml (where the catalina SingleSIgnOn is commented) and expect it to work.
Is this correct? And if so, can I achieve what I want to, ie a valve for all contexts? John On Sunday 30 June 2002 21:38, John Baker wrote: > On Sunday 30 June 2002 9:35 pm, Craig R.
