I finaly figured out how to get around my login problems (only took me 4 months).

I have to disable "automatic" mode when accepting cookies and switch to manual instead. That works with (abysmally slow) Internet Explorer and I'll try Netscape and iCab next.


UPDATE: NS-Navigator -> Changing cookie setting to manual popup warnign makes no difference (Login just won't take). iCab -> Not even sure if I changed it correctly, but its not working either.

There's known problems with Netscape and HTML forms that we're still evaluating (aka "broken pipe" problem). I'd advise against using NS with the forums and instead rely on either iCab and IE which are known to work fine on actual hardware.

As for the cookie issue - I never bothered with manual setting, still no idea what could be the issue. It definitely has to do something with your specific setup though, as it works fine from other machines. I can even log in and post from the IIci next to me.

So the interesting question is "where does my system do things differently from a standard Mac OS install?"

Jeez Louis, I highly doubt even Steve Jobs would consider my setup "standard" ;) I've itched and twitched this system so much, I couldn't even being to list all the differences to a "normal OS".
It'll be easier if you'd ask me instead "what is till standard on your machine?"

Well, the boot logo I guess (as of yet).
