Login behavior

I'm not sure if this is intended behavior or not, but when I go to the main page (http://localhost/alfresco) it takes me to the guest page, as expected.However, if I login as a user, and then close the browswer, the next time I open it, it takes me to the login page, not the guest page.

The only way to then get back to the guest page it to login, then click logout, then close the browser and reopen it.

Shouldn't it either login me in automatically? Or take me to the guest page? Is there a way to make a new browser session default to the guest page?

Thanks!

I have a similar problem using the webservices login.

Scenario:
1. User logs into my app.
2. My app successfully logs user into alfresco
3. My app uses ticket to redirect user to alfresco app (i.e, /alfresco/navigate/browse?ticket=<ticket>) and user can work within the alfresco app without error.
4. User logs out of my app
5. My app successfully performs an endSession with aforementioned ticket.

Now, if I log back into my app as a different user without closing the browser, Steps 1 and 2 above are successful, but in Step 3, I get the following exception:

it appears the subsequent login from the same browser instance is using a stale session for the new user.

I have even implemented a sessionlistener and am invalidating the first user's session, but this does not resolve the issue. Appears to be a caching problem, but I'm out of ideas. As with the previous poster, there is no issue if I log in as another user from a new browser instance.

Using alfresco 2.0, IE 6 SP2 & Firefox 2.0.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
