I don't believe this problem has anything to do with the Alfresco webservice client API.The following JSP can be used to show that regardless of the Thread starting the session, Alfresco returns the same ticket number when two sessions start with the same username. This is the real problem. Alfresco should not return the same ticket number when startSession() is invoked multiple times for a single username. Every time startSession() is invoked a new ticket should be created.Add test.jsp to your web application with the webservice API, and open the test.jsp url in two different browsers.test.jsp sleeps for 30 seconds to give you time to open test.jsp in another browser, which will start a concurrent session.Note that the Thread is different but the Ticket is the same for both browsers.test.jsp
