The GAMMA AUP was updated with 1 new file: WCSERVER.EXE
This fixes the problem where a web user has spaces in his login name and

So451.5. The original BASIC authentication method never had this problem.
Butif you were using BASIC AUTHENTICATION only, you never experienced this.
needif you enabled DIGEST and/or COOKIE login methods, you may have seen this problem when a user used spaces in his or her name. In this case, you
typothe new wcserver.exe.
Thanks for your patience. Who would of thought that a user will have a
space in his name?! <g>
To use the GAMMA AUP, type:

Question. Are you using cookies?not
I am suspecting that most people have not switched to using cookies and are
reporting it as much. I think this is all related to cookies. I justturned
it off at winserver.com to see if continues to happen here.

What I have seen is an INDIVIDUAL user being stuck, requiring wcOnline to be stopped and started to clear the user.
Your thinking may well be on the right track given that we first started discussing this issue around the time you introduced the digest and cookie option.

I have a strong suspicion that it is related to cookies, but I always hadthat
suspicion. That is why I had WINSERVER.COM use it to see if I can capture situations.HTTP
The best I can tell is that it only happens with IE browsers (based on the
logs). I have not notice a session with a FF browser exhibiting thisproblem.
But I can't duplicate it.that
Take the user GEOFF case. I did this with everyone that was logged in more than once. Looking at the HTTP log, he logs in at 18:18:27 and it seems
in displaying the login default page, it creates nodes 4 to 10 for eachrequest.
So he clicks LOGIN after filling in name/password and the /LOGIN request comes in, and now wildcat logs him in at node 4:why
4 64.192.187.6 - GEOFF BROZNY -
[28/Sep/2005:18:18:27 -0400] "GET /login?js=1
But now it needs to display the home page and it seems for each request to complete the default.htm, a new node is used. It doesn't use node 4.
5 64.192.187.6 - GEOFF BROZNY -
[28/Sep/2005:18:18:27 -0400] "GET /default.htm
7 64.192.187.6 - GEOFF BROZNY -
[28/Sep/2005:18:18:28 -0400] "GET /index.html
8 64.192.187.6 - GEOFF BROZNY -
[28/Sep/2005:18:18:28 -0400] "GET /public/topframe.wct
9 64.192.187.6 - GEOFF BROZNY -
[28/Sep/2005:18:18:28 -0400] "GET /mainmenu.htm
10 64.192.187.6 - GEOFF BROZNY -
[28/Sep/2005:18:18:28 -0400] "GET /supportindex.wct
Anyway, I am sure it is so simple I can't see it. But why only sometimes,
only a certain people (so it seems), why can't I duplicate it?
I have no hair left <g>
