configuring session database for WSS 3.0

[Brian Hman]

Hi All,

I'm configuring a WSS 3.0 farm, and since our custom apps use session data I
need to configure a session database for my WSS 3.0 servers. Can some one
send me a link of instructions on how to do this for WSS 3.0? Most the
examples I find out there are for setting up session databases for MOSS.

Thanks!

Hi Brian,

The MOSS 's session state management will rely on the shared service
provider, and the configuration will require some specific steps:

#Session State Management in SharePoint

For WSS, there is no shared service provider, I think the sessionState is
completely the same as ASP.NET session state management. You can try
configuring the sql session state just like the standard ASP.NET web
application(for the WSS webfront server):
