Thanks for your reply Sébastien I got it working in the end - I used the 'action' attribute, rather than the 'value' attribute. Makes sense I guess - I thought I had been using 'value' in other places with success, but I did a quick search of all my JSPs and no, I use action everywhere. So, there was nothing wrong with the cluster which is a relief!
Anyone else with the same problem: use the action attribute if you want jsessionid to be appended to urls...

Do you use apache with mod_proxy, or mod_jk maybe or anything else? I had problems while using such architecture because of the way that tomcat build url from values present in the http header.
