CGI->cookie question

amt has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

For an integration project, I need to have my cookies be read by two different machines. Looking at the documentation, this is provided by:

$query->cookie( -name=>'oreo', -domain => '.somewhere.net' )

Disregarding any syntactical error above, the problem that I am having is that the machines that I'm bouncing between, do not have DNS entries. They are simply IP addresses, on the local network segment 192.168.*.*.

I'm looking to have the machines recognize the cookie, even thought it doesn't have a conventional -domain value.

Update: I'm a jerk, the answer has already been posted here, but this brings up another question. Can I specify network segments (i.e. 192.168.1.1/24)?

According to the standard, `192.168.1.1/24` isn't valid.	[reply] [d/l]
