Hi I have a custom web server written for a lightweight need. Now I need the HTTP users to have session support. Any guidelines would be helpful. Note that I’m not using any servlets.

Its a quite compilcated thing actually, and unless its not a homework or something, this is exactly a kind of things when you should take a step back and ask yourself “do I really need a custom web server here, maybe Jetty/Windstone (just to name a couple) should be enough” 🙂
Today you need session, tomorrow you’ll need some security stuff and voila, you have a full custom web server 🙂
If you want to stick to java standards you should consider interface
HttpSession
http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/1.3/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpSession.html
Yet another source I think can help you is
Different Session management techniques
I hope this helps
