It should work exactly like you describe it.
There are some reasons why it dosen't work everywhere.
- You click on "log Odud out" (logout) - this erases your cookie.
Bad move.
- You use the Internet
Junkbuster or another anonymizing proxy that blocks
cookies for you.
- You have set cookies off in your browser.
- You think you have roaming Netscape/IE profiles
that wander with you whereever you login, but you don't
(or your admin screwed that up).
You can check for those things by inspecting your cookie
file (manually, using less or Explorer, depending
on what browser you use) and checking your browser settings.
You could also write up a small LWP script that makes
a request through your usual proxy settings and checks whether
there is a cookie returned or not.
