Re: Vault sessions

I tried this and failed.  I set up a separate server and tried change 
the web.config file to get them to use a state server for sessions.  It 
appeared to work but all transactions failed.  I could check-out files 
but not check them in.  I think you could set up two servers but because 
the sessions are handled in memory, there would be no way to load 
balance them.  It would be nice if future versions supported the use of 
State servers or Sql Server for sessions.
