All:

Have an interesting issue.  We have an application that was deployed
prior to my arrival to the company.  When the application was first
deployed the admins left cookies=true enabled in server.xml.  Our
applications are primarily used by phones/wap devices.  These devices
store their cookies on the cell providers WAP Gateway.   I've been
tasked with getting these applications load-balanced.   I've
accomplished this on most applications by setting jvmRoute in server.xml
and configuring our load-balancers to pick up this string.  

Here's the interesting part of the equation.  Somehow I have to force
the tomcat engine to disregard the cookie sent by the phone and force
the engine to establish a jsessionid and pass this back to the wap
device.  I've turned off the cookies in the engine.  Has anyone else
encountered this?  Any tips on an engine configuration that will force
tomcat to set a sessionid despite getting a cookie from the app?

Thanks,
Kris--
