cookies are only valid for the domain specified when they are sent so this problem often occurs if you log into the site using a short form on the machine name - set a cookie and later redirect to the fully qualified domain name (also true if there is more thane one fqdn for the server) (I'm comming to servlets from php,perl - so I'm not sure if you can access the same servlet context from these different hostnames...) -- Sean ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
