I thought you could set a cookie for a different domain - you just can't read a different domain's cookie. So you could simply set 3 cookies when the user authenticates. Now I'm curious, I'll need to try that. -- Joe Pearson Database Management Services, Inc. 208-384-1311 ext. 11

I don't think there's any pretty way to do it. The only thing I can think of off-hand is to generate the cross-server links dynamically, including an encrypted token in the URL which will notify that server that it should set a cookie saying that the user has already logged in. The
