Dave, I presume you mean the container has expired the session? You should use a filter.
You can then use the methods on the HttpServletRequest to see if the sesion is valid and then the isNew() on the session itself to see if it is a new session. You can then send them to your login page or anywhere else if you don't want to go further or chain.doFilter to carry on.
