Hi,

After a lot of struggling and reading, I have successfully used the  
URI State plugin and I can use a previous session in my RPC call.

The first RPC call is made agains the standard RPC url  
(http://server/rpc) and return the session id. The next RPC calls are  
made againt the following url http://server/rpc/?sessionid=$sessionid  
and that works.

In my yml file, i have put these lines :
ession:
   expires:  '60'
   storage:  '/tmp/session'
   rewrite:  '0'
   param:    'sessionid'

Thanks again for showing me this pluging and force me to use my mind :)

Regards

Nicolas
