Add the following fragment to your web.xml:
<!-- Session Counting Filter -->
<!-- Every request passing through this filter will be checked for a -->
<!-- newly-created session, which will be then counted against the -->
<!-- total sessions using this application. -->
<filter>
<filter-name>SessionCountFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>SessionCountFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>SessionCountFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

I got your code in, and it compiles, but I don't understand how I configure
the url-mapping you refer to. Could you point me to some docs for that? I
looked through the web.xml files (both the server one, and the one for the
app), but couldn't find anything about url-mapping or filters that seemed to
apply to this. It may be there, but I don't know enough about it to
recognize it.
Thanks!

Subject: Logging session timeouts
Is there any way of trapping session timeouts, so I can log them? I am
logging when a user logs in and when they explicitly log out, but would
like to log when their session times out, if that is possible.
TIA!
