Apologies - message got sent out before being completed.

How would I go about destroying the SP session cookie?

The entire log entry looks like this:

2014-08-14 16:27:53 INFO Shibboleth-TRANSACTION [3]: New session (ID: _e334e3c4ba1911df55847a371825edec) with (applicationId: default) for principal from (IdP: http://www.okta.com/kv79fg77CWVTMIVZXMLF) at (ClientAddress: 134.139.2.14) with (NameIdentifier: 000020564) using (Protocol: urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol) from (AssertionID: id37166912858056794557589990)

Which does get updated when I go to the application again:

2014-08-14 16:29:11 INFO Shibboleth-TRANSACTION [5]: New session (ID: _e3f18b546f6524bb64232d748c9d62ca) with (applicationId: default) for principal from (IdP: http://www.okta.com/kv79fg77CWVTMIVZXMLF) at (ClientAddress: 134.139.2.14) with (NameIdentifier: 000020564) using (Protocol: urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol) from (AssertionID: id377649452240692491450287841)

It doesn't seem the first SP session really ended.  I see that you state "the SP logs a new session" but you don't provide the log entry for that, and generally, merely closing the active browser tab does not end the SP session - not in my experience anyway.  So opening a new tab/window in the same browser session just continues with the existing session.  That of course does not require re-authentication.

If you want to test the re-authentication required after 5 seconds, you'll need to destroy the SP session cookie.

I have a new SP I've been asked to introduce to the environment with the requirement that this SP force re-authentication each time it is used.  I realize this goes against SSO in general but it is still a requirement I need to try and fill.
