hi,
my zeo setup is running like a top :-) ...until!
i would like my zeo clients to share the same session storage.
out of the box, zope has a temporary storage database (/temp_folder) for the session data (/temp_folder/session_data). the session data manager (/session_data_manager) is then configured to pull from the session data (/temp_folder/session_data).
my first inclination was to create another session data object (/session_folder/session_data) in the main database and to configure the session data manager to pull from it. (i've also tried using a separate zeo filestorage and mounting it. as expected, i saw the same results through out.)
however, when i do this, it seems as though only one zeo client is allowed to use the session. a simple python script that prints request.SESSION succeeds on one client, but fails with a key error on the other.

i have: python 2.3.4 Zope 2.7.1 ...compiled from source
this was all i could really find on zeo clients sharing sessions. it seems to support what i have attempted: http://www.zopelabs.com/cookbook/1061234337
what might i be missing? if sharing the session is a bad idea. where else could i store session like information for a script based application?
thanks for any help
thanks, travis
