So it _should_ work for you if you're on a similar setup.
It only works if you access your machine with the same url from everywhere. I can make an (lm)host file on every machine on my home network but my point is that this seems an unnecessary hassle just to store settings while all the other myth settings are in the database. The only advantage to using sessions for this would be someone running a mythweb server with user from all over the world with different language settings... Steven
