Sun_Livelink_Admin_(sunmic01admin_-_(deleted))

I am working on a Single Sign-on project. We try to automatically login a user to LL using a servlet once this user is authenticated by a iPlanet Portal Sever(iPS). This is just some background info. Now I am testing this servlet in Tomcat3.2. I run the servlet which includes some hard-coded user login data, then 3 LL cookies were set as follows, the problem is that when I went to the same LL instance with the same user data, I still need to login again, why?I am on Solaris2.7, I checked the netscape cookies file, but there were no LL cookies stored. Are they cached somewhere on the server? Can someone explain this to me??Thanks!!-ycyu.chen@sun.com-----------------called sso.Request url: http://host.domain:8000/livelink/livelinkQuery: func=ll.login&Username=Admin&Password=...&CurrentClientTime=...getting headersServer:Netscape-Enterprise/4.1Date:Wed, 20 Jun 2001 22:53:58 GMTContent-type:text/htmlSet-cookie:LLInProgress=...; path=/livelink/Set-cookie:LLCookie=...; path=/livelink/Set-cookie:LLTZCookie=...; path=/livelink/Content-length:172

The cookies that you would see in thecookies.txt file are ones that expire sometime in the future - Livelinkcookies are "removed" as soon as the browser is closed.
