--------------------------------------------
Summary: Cookie Domain Setting
Key: COUCHDB-1959
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1959
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HTTP Interface
Reporter: Andrew Spode Miller
When using cookies for authentication, there is no "domain" set for the cookie.
This is fine - because this will default the cookie to the domain you accessed
it from.
However, if you want to, for example, login to auth.domain.com and then access
1.domain.com, 2.domain.com - your authentication won't be valid as the cookie
domain will be auth.domain.com
I'd like to see an option in local.ini to turn on a wildcard cookie. This would
set the domain to ".domain.com" which would allow the cookie to work across
subdomains. This would default to off and only affect people who want this
specific use.
