Passing PHP session to external ASP app

I开发者_运维技巧 have been asked by a client if it was possible to build a PHP site which will pass sessions to an other app located on a different server which uses ASP.

I was wondering if any of you had a prior experience with this ? And if so how problematic can this task be? Is there any resources that you would recommend about that topic ?

Thanks a bunch for your insights.

The session is nothing but an identifier which points to some data on the server. You can use session_save_handler and friends to manage how these are saved (e.g. store in a database instead of default files used by PHP) and parse/use the data connected to the session from you ASP code.
