Servelt in front of another web-application

[John Lincoln]

Hi,

I have a task to integrate an out-of-box web application into a portal. Somehow to we have to keep track of the session of this external web-application so that when user returns to this web-application in the portal his state is maintained.

Someone suggested you can maintain the state of this web-application , by building servlet in front of the web-application.

If someone has done this before, can you please throw some light.

The external application uses cookies or url-rewriting to maintain its session.

thanks in advance.

This appears to be an extension of your other post here (in which I cleaned up the misuse of the code tag). Please continue any discussion in that post.
