Reinstalling unstable broke cookies
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Dumb subject, but I couldn't come up with anything better.
The problem is:
I reinstalled Linux a few days ago; the only big change that I made was
that I replaced Gnome with KDE.
Before, I had a CGI script written in Perl that would set a session
cookie and another one that would read it. They both worked flawlessly.
But now, after reinstalling unstable, I can still set the cookie, but I
can't retrieve it. After running the CGI, Konqueror's cookie manager
shows me two cookies in the 127.0.0.1 group: Both are named 'auth' -
the name I gave to the cookie. Neither one has a target domain
specified and both are listed as set by host 127.0.0.1. They do have
the value that I set them to. The target path of the first one is
'/%7Ejuergen/ldap/auth.cgi', the path of the second one is
'/~juergen/ldap/auth.cgi'. So they seem to be there, but the script
that is supposed th\o retrieve the cookie just gets an empty string.
My question would be: Can anyone please tell me what could have caused
this? Or failing that, could anyone please tell me what the proper
place to ask this question is?
Thanks,
j
