from personal experience, if you really want sticky session for a cluster of servers, 
use something like Resonate or Router based stick sessions.
 
I've used both in the past. Although it is not easy to setup and configure, once it is 
setup, it works well.
 
to get sticky sessions to work with apache + multiple tomcats probably will require 
changing the implementation. I would go with what works and has had severals to iron 
out all the kinks.

Hi 

I am using tomcat 5.0.14 with apache 2.0.47. I have 2 instances of tomcat
working with apache infront taking the requests and forwarding to the 2
tomcats.

I can make the apache do load balancing, giving each server 50% of the
traffic. When i try to create sticky sessions, it works, but only the first
tomcat instance gets all the traffic.

Is it possible to have sticky sessions with load balancing, ie if a user
with out a session comes in it goes to one tomcat, then the next etc, but if
a user comes in with a session id, it goes to the tomcat that i was created
on???
