OK, what you write makes sense. However, at work I am using the same
type of setup. A user is authenticated, a session is started and the
user can navigate through the online application. At work, I can have
multiple IE browsers open and during the last 2 years, never have I
seen the problem of the session switching between users. Even on my
own application, I do not see this problem every time. It happens
every so often. Meaning I had as many as 4 IE windows open connecting
to my on-line application and never saw a switch. Then it happens out
of the blue. Now the differences between my work application and
private application:
Work: Linux running Apache with a https sessions
Home: Windows XP running Apache with no security
Thanks again,
Slav
