Extending org.apache.catalina.session.StandardManager should do what you want. Do something like this:

public class MySessionManager extends StandardManager {

    @Override
    protected synchronized String generateSessionId() { 
        String sessionId = <Your session id generation algo>;
        return sessionId;
    }
}

After you have your session manager, follow this answer.
