Hello,

I found strange behaviour in Jahia 4.0.4 release. I could swear that
it was possible to login, click on a jahia page and then close the
browser via "X" or "close" (that all without actually logging off via
the jahia menu button). When opening another browser window and
inserting the jahia sites address, the user was still logged on.
... But now, this feature is gone. When the user closes the browser
and opens another browser session, the login is gone and he has to
authenticate another time.

Any ideas why this changed? It's really strange. Especially
considering that I was really shocked to read that cookie
authentification isn't in 4.0.4 release anyway... How could this ever
worked???

Since the cookie based authentification from Schellenberg&Wittner is
in CVS since June 2004, maybe anyone backported the necessary changes
to the code to Jahia 4.0.4 release? Or are there any plans Jahia team
to do this?

If there's no patch of any sort, maybe the Jahia Team could provide a
bit more info what they changed to achieve cookie authentification so
our team can try to backport it and release a patch.

I think this feature is really critical to a mature portal server. No
offense to the developers of Jahia, but cookies are standard for any
intranet server / portal server since like 200 BC!
