No. Yes... depends.

Here's what happening:
1. server sets cookie on response
2. server sends response code REDIRECT (302) to
myserv.somedomain.com
3. browser recieves response (with cookie)
4. browser reads in cookie and puts cookie in it's cookie jar
5. browser obeys the REDIRECT...
6. opens a new connection to http://myserv.somedomain.com
7. sends request
So you can see why the cookie is not arriving at the redirected
server.
If the 2 servers have a common domain name you can set the domain
part of the cookie so that it gets delivered to both servers (see
yeseterday's list mails).
