Under a servlet 2.2 environment (Tomcat 3.x), it is not feasible to write such a
generic tool without some help by your application (the login process adds an
object to the session that implements HttpSessionBindingListener that keeps a
local collection of active sessions), or writing custom extensions to Tomcat.
Under a servlet 2.3 environment (Tomcat 4.x), you can use an application event
listener to do stuff like this in a generic way.
