load-balancing session usage

[darylbewise]

I am in the process of moving from a single server solution to a load balancing solution. Once of the websites that will be located on the server makes use of asp.net in-process sessions.

I am looking for peoples opinion on the best way to go about making the required alterations to how the server, as in-process sessions will not work with a multi server configuration. (i.e. session value will altered depending on which server the user is directed to)

I have looking into implementing SQL server session, however the two servers in the configuration all session values would be redirected to the one main database. (which is not ideal)

Is there any way of actually removing the use of sessions all together? i.e. is there any way of storing values (that will be saved between pages) without using session (or cookies)?
Thanks in advance

Nothing other than saving session state in the db.
