hi,

it is possible you need to use socket connection that is cookie aware. by default
we use our own implementation that does not support cookies however you can switch
to use HttpConnectionSoapInvoker. the easiest way to go is to use
HttpConnectionSoapServices.getDefault() instead of default
SoapServices.getDefault() and you should be able to keep cookie / session with
tomcat.

let me know if it did not work.

thanks,
