I replied to your previous post on the 2nd.  I said:

OS/version?
Tomcat/version?

Which Tomcat monitoring tool?

Your description of the behaviour isn't very clear.

It seems that you're saying that your test clients are logging in and 
getting a unique session id.  This is normal.

When you login with a web browser you get a unique session id for each 
different browser.  This is also normal.

Can you be clearer about what you expect to happen and what, if 
anything, is different to your expectation?


 > When running a Load session, for some reason, each HTTP request will 
generate a login, when monitoring the server.

Is this what you expect to happen, and if not, why not?

 > The server is being monitored from the server-side and each request 
to the server will display a sessionid associated with the login id of 
the virtual client.

Is this what you expect to happen, and if not, why not?

> However, when I login in manually I only see one sessionid associated with a login id as I navigate the site and request a page, and once I fire up another browser, and do the same navigation, I see the second sessionid.

Is this what you expect to happen, and if not, why not?

> Have you folks seen this type of behavior on a Tomcat site, where virtual clients login generate multiple sessionids under load, running virtual client is 10, and the server see 20 sessionids?

I'll give you a clue, in advance of a more detailed explanation of your 
problem: are you properly url encoding each link in the web application?
