I've got a set of Cisco load balancers doing the SSL so Tomcat does not
know that these sessions are SSL.  My guess is that is why it is not
being set.  Is there any way to force Tomcat to set the jsessionid
cookie to secure?

You'll need to install fiddler to sniff when the cookie is being set. If

  the request is SSL and during that request, the JSESSIONID cookie is 
created - it will be SSL. So either the cookie is being set some other 
time, or IE is lying that the cookie is secure. (Or something else)
