in reply to (OT) Cookies lost in transit

The application can be accessed by IP address, DNS name or by a local name set up in the hosts file. The cookies are only being lost when the DNS name is used. To my mind, this points to
How are you constructing the cookie (hello host)? Got any packet capturing software running (get some, capture, compare)?

    For tracking client and server headers, I would highly recommend using the Live HTTP Headers plugin for Mozilla. This will show you exactly what the browser is sending to the server, and what the server is sending back.

    Then you can check the same thing on the server side to see if something is different (mod_perl provides the Apache::DumpHeaders module, I am guessing there must be a similar feature avaiable to IIS).
