hi
all
I have one question. I am using IIS 5.0. Is IIS use the
metabase to get session.sessionid and communicate with the
browser using that session id. After creating sessionid by
ISAPI function will it stores in the Metabase. If yes then
is it possible to change the session id in the metabase.

sir
I know techniques to transfer sessions from asp to asp.net.
problem is I am calling a webservice from an asp page and
that web sevice executing some restricted ( the pages
which require some authentication) pages in the background
and storing their html output in a file. To authenticate
we are using RSA Secure ID and we can't pass this through
programatically. and if I don't pass it I get the error of
you are not authorised to view this page.
create an asp file and write only this much statements

response.write session.sessionid
response.end

you will see a session id assign to that browser. now
press Ctrl + N. you will see the same sessionid in the new
browser window, and you can access the whole site in both
the browser windows.

I want to use the same logic here if i change the
sessionid of web service to that of asp application have,
I won't get any error.
that's why I want answer for my question
