[Moin-user] wikifarm and cookie_domain

Hi,

I've a wikifarm with 5 wikis. Everything is working fine and I use one
wiki as user wiki for all users and a common data directory for the
usernames/passwords.

user_dir = '/server/wikis/farm/farm-user'
user_homewiki = 'UserWiki'

A user that has logged in to one wiki is able to access other farm
wikis as long as the hostname does not change. 

Unfortunately our domain name changed several times lately, the FQDN
the users use to access the wikis is not always the same. And some
users only use the hostname without domain suffix at all.

http://hostname/wikiA
http://hostname.new.domain.com/wikiB
http://hostname.old.domain.com/wikiC

I tried different settings of cookie_domain and cookie_path, but
couldn't find a solution so that a user stays logged in to all wikis,
even if only the host name part stays the same.

Ralf
