it was set in a header. But I already figured out what the Problem was. For the Browser (Firefox 4) .localhost is not a valid domain for a cookie. Some documents on the web say, that for localhost domain has to be empty. This also didn't work. The solution was requesting the service with a full qualified hostname and then setting the cookie according to the fqn.
Hope this helps everybody who runs in the same pitfall.
