Hi Mike,

One twist to cookies that I use is to store a public key of the user. They 
key is used to encode their password and send a digest. In this way, 
passwords are never sent (even over an SSL connection). I also never store 
passwords (only digests).

Do all of your users have a public/private key pair? If so, are the
public keys stored in a central repository?
Are you requiring each client to a have digital certifcate? I can not
do that for my application. Most of the users who are connecting to my
application do not have a digital cert.
