Two things:
1) by default your login.jsp creates a new session unless you explicitly tell it not to.
<%@ page language="java" session="false"  %>
2) you could try to get an Attribute from the session. If your particular attribute doesn't exist in the session, you can assume that it is "new".

Subject: redirect and getSession(true).isNew()


Hi,
 
it seems that a redirect automatically creates a new session, how can this be avoided?
say I have the following setup:
 
login.jsp --> only thing it does is redirect to a servlet
 
what do I have to do to let the servlet know this is, or can be a new session?
 
gr,
