There is a PHP bug reported a few times on the php bug tracker that reports that in some rare cases, the session cookie is not being deleted, but replaced with the text 'deleted'. When another computer gets the same cookie, and they both attempt to start a session, they both end up seeing the same session files, and various preferences and what not get corrupted. This is the only explanation I can think of that would result in two sessions, on physically seperate machines, being corrupted. Can you check where PHP is saving your session files, and see if you have sess_deleted files? - -- Jonathan Angliss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkNfMXMACgkQK4PoFPj9H3OZhgCdGPsABOi3DK8wrRwUpl6wRcDj SBQAoMwn1uW9Ck3foLMQjTQqpeHFrsvO =d0TK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
