How does the session.jsp example page work for you? I had no problem
with that using Apache + Apache JServ 0.9.11. I will try this out on a
couple of servlet engines in a couple of days ago. I don't think the
problem is related to what is described in the URL's you sent. That has
to do with SSI-Servlets not being able to set Cookies. A JSP page should
be able to do that; it is a full-fledged servlet.
