title: ASP.net: Is it possible to initialize session manually from session-id
body: <p>I am building a web service (ASMX) in C#. I am thinking of using ASP.net session ID as a token for authentication.</p>
  
  <p>I have session-id generated with CreateSessionID. This will be sent to client after successful authentication (as return value of web-service call 'login').</p>
  
  <p>For subsequent requests, the client will send the session-id as a parameter to the web-service call. Is it possible to recreate the session from this session ID string ?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
