[Zope-CMF] Problems with virtual hosting and CMF 1.2

[Andrew Sawyers]

On the 3 sites I'm working on at the moment, changing the cookie
authentication name from __ac to __ac_foo works fine; fixed all problems you
described.

Yeah, well, 1.3.24 is out and it don't work either ;-) Stick with 1.3.22 if
you wish to
remain sane.

That workaround doesn't work ;-) (well, at least for me...)

Going back to 1.3.22 solved the problem for the customer, but when I go
through our proxy
to their site, it still doesn't work in prettymuch the same way.

Any ideas?

cheers,

Chris
