First off, why bother setting client cookies at all?? If you pass the CFID and CFTOKEN through the URL and vars are stored in the DB, then why set cookies? I don't remember off the top of my head whether CF looks for CFID and CFTOKEN in the cookie first, or in the url string, but you might want to investigate.
Second, check to make sure that "cfClientstorage" is mapped to the same DB in the CF Administrator on all machines in the cluster. This is most likely your problem. If the DSNs are mapped to different DBs then two users might get the same CFID and CFTOKEN if they start their sessions on different machines, then when they switch machines they will switch client vars... -----Original Message----- From: Owens, Howard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 4:30 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Client Variable Scrabble Nah, It's IE 5.0 and 5.5 H. > -----Original Message----- > From: Owens, Howard [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 4:25 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Client Variable Scrabble > > Thanks, Dave ...
