Subject: OT -- setting httpd cookies
Pointers welcome, of course, to which FM i should R:
In setting cookies via cgi or whatever, there's rules on
having to include at least two portions of your domain in the
cookie, such as for hyperarchive.lcs.mit.edu the minimum
domain allowable would be mit.edu, right? But you still have to
put the two dots in, as for example, ".mit.edu".
Would this allow cookies from "smith.mit.edu" and "www.mit.edu"
AND "mit.edu" to be set properly? Or would they go into the bit
bucket, for greenpeace-friendly recycling?
Or for more hypothetical instance, cpu.subnet.org.tld can set
cookies with domain=".org.tld" and so can "www.org.tld" but can
plain old prefix-challenged "org.tld" work cookies, in this case?

I'd concentrate on "living in the now" because it is fun
and on building a better world because it is possible.
