session management

[chan_fookmun]

i believe there are 3 modes of session management which are in process,state server and sql server.i am interested in retrieving the values stored in the session objects for all the 3 modes using an application external to the asp.net application.

for instance in the state server mode, the asp.net runtime will retrieve session management from the asp.net state service (aspnet_state.exe).can i use a console application to extract session information from this service?

thanks a lot

I have a question before answering this question. Do you know how you will identified where the session information for a particular request is stored at a given instance. Also how will you identify which mode it was stored in while retrieving the information. Unless you can do this I am not sure how you will use all three session state modes in one applicaiton that too on the web server
