[Zope] persistent sessions with ZEO not working

[Marko Kruijer]

Yes,

I followed the instructions from the howto, including the mount point part.
I have a folder named 'session_folder' in my root, and it containts a 
session data manager. There are also items in there when sessions are 
being used so it looks like that's functioning fine.

Are the sessions ID's not consistent accross clients or is this some 
kind of bug?
