The issue is that you moved the servers.
The cookie Ip is different.

1. delete the cookies for TSWB.org.
2. Close out the browser and open it back up. TSWB.org will ask for you login credentials again.
3. Enter it and click remember button.
4. Close out of the browser and then reopen it. Check TSWB. It should have logged you in automatically.

I had to do this TWICE, and now it appears to be working, but I'm not ready to put money on it.

No, I didn't reboot, but I did restart the site. I think I'm getting a little closer to understanding what's going on though.

I may restart it once or twice more just to test a few things. I know it's a pain in the butt, but I want to figure out what's going on.

Lets see if I can get this to post. When I clicked on this forum I was redirected to this site. http://www.aspsoft.com/?gclid=CP3jzKubsYoCFRGhQAodXXnXqQ When I clicked back I had to logon. I tried to post this reply and it went to the logon window again. [EMO]confuse.gif[/EMO] At least the smileys are working again.

Trying for the third time....

Ok, I think I have it licked. I just restared the site 3 or 4 times in the last 5 minutes, and haven't lost my login, even if I closed down the browser while the site was being recycled.

Seems like DotNetNuke auto-generates an encryption key for the cookies (and other things) by default, and I figured out a way to force it to use the same key each time it restarts. Hopefully, this will have fixed the issue.

Just as a note, I did delete all cookies from this machine as part of testing, not just the TSWB ones. I don't know if that makes a difference (it shouldn't, but who knows?).
