Re: nature of this servlet-interest list

I remember seeing Craig's name come up a few times but I guess he must
have missed my posts, or had nothing to say about them.

My question is basically, why can I no longer use encrypt the form-based
authentication for the container (i.e. SSL / HTTPS) and carry on the
session in unencrypted HTTP afterwards?

In a nutshell. It seems to be a deliberate feature of the Servlet Spec.

I have looked into it alot and had work-arounds in place for a while,
but changes in tomcat as new releases come out have also stymied my
work-arounds.

Thanks
Adam
