title: How to maintain the same session id across multiple web applications in ASP.NET
body: <p>I have two identical applications setup on IIS on different virtual directories (I have done some workaround to ensure that they both have the same application name). Is there a way to share session id across two asp.net web applications? </p>
  
  <p>Since I'm storing the session in StateServer, they should both be getting the same session data, however, a different session id is created everytime I go from application a to applicatino b. Wouldn't this happen in a load balancing scenario as well? Where when I go to www.test.com, it would redirect that request to server a, and then if I hit it again, it would go to server b, but since it's a different web application, it would create a new session id? </p>
