I think I finally found the problem, even though I haven't resolved it yet.
I don't think the problem is XWiki.  I am using the free service that
www.no-ip.com offers.  I'm using their services to map a domain name to a
dynamic IP address.  My real domain name forwards to the no-ip domain name.
Somewhere along that trail the cookie is getting dropped (if that's the
right term here).  If I go to my site with the real IP address the login
works fine.

Even though this isn't a problem with XWiki, has anyone else experienced
this problem by chance?
