I use a similar strategy (intercepting 401 responses from the server). You can check out the full example here : https://github.com/Khelldar/Angular-Express-Train-Seed

It uses node and mobgodb on the backend for session store and a trimmed down http interceptor on the client that doens't retry requests like the one Dan linked above:

 var interceptor = ['$q', '$location', '$rootScope', function ($q, $location, $rootScope) {
        function success(response) {
            return response;
        }

        function error(response) {
            var status = response.status;
            if (status == 401) {
                $location.path('/login');
            }
            return $q.reject(response);
        }

        return function (promise) {
            return promise.then(success, error);
        }
    }];
    $httpProvider.responseInterceptors.push(interceptor);
