Using Cookies with Session Variables

[Guest]

This is my second attempt to get an answer:

I have an application that uses session variables. I need to create custom cookies (besides CFID and CFTOKEN) that I can pass to a non-coldfusion file (i.e. *.cgi). Has anyone does this before? If so, how. So far, I am getting no luck in doing this. I only see CFID and CFTOKEN being passed.

I wrote cookies to remember username and password for the sign in page. The
values get set to sessions when they login. Something like that?
