When I last ran into this problem, it was because I'd imported the site tree 
into the production server retaining ownerships, but the user that owned most 
of the site (except for user content) didn't exist on the new server. 
Importing with the take ownership option did the right thing.

Of course it could be a cookie thing - try logging in with a browers that 
will ask you to accept a cookie on a per cookie basis and see what's being 
set. A successfull login will set __ac_name and __ac.
