Thank you very much for this info.
Indeed, this fixes the problem for me.
I had debugged to the point where it was evident that the required cookie 
was never being set by the manage.cgi script.  When later attempting to 
authenticate, several variables were set to undefined values and the script 
crashed rather than exiting gracefully with a message about the 
non-existent cookie.  Evidently the "warn" messages being sent interfered 
with the cookie setting header.
What confuses me now is why the same script worked at all on Sunday when I 
used it successfully to pass the "full access" test.  I can only assume 
that a compatible cookie was set by the "reg_system.cgi" script during the 
domain registration, and was still present when the manage.cgi script tried 
to read it.  Otherwise, I can't figure why the manage.cgi script did not 
crash previously as well.

Thanks very much for the tip.  Hopefully having this thread now archived in 
the message list will save a great deal of grief for others experiencing 
the problem.
