Unfortunately I do not have any of this information.


I did spend alot of time trying to trouble-shoot this.
I assumed all along that there was a problem with the pubcookie software,
but that turned out to be false. I put debug stuff in the pubcookie code,
plus some in the apache code, to verify the creation and disappearance
of the session cookies. I googled and eventually found and applied Brett's
patch.

Suggestions?
