I'm having a problem logging in when I come back to my forum.  I've traced it down and found that when I go to my forum as mydomain.com/forum then it works fine.  However, if I go to www.mydomain.com/forum, it doesn't recognize me.  It's like it can't (or won't) read the cookies or something.

Is there something I'm doing wrong (or something I should be doing?) to make this work?

Failing that, is there a way to make any http request to mydomain.com route to www.mydomain.com?

Thanks.

Each domain name holds seperate cookies, so http://www.mydomain.com - www.mydomain.com will hold different cookies than mydomain.com.  They are treated as seperate sites,  And WWF is setup so that if you login to one, it logs your out of the other.  So you will have to log back in each time you switch from http://www.mydomain.com - www.mydomain.com to mydomain.com.
 
As far as redirecting mydomain.com to http://www.mydomain.com - www.mydomain.com , it can be done, but you will probably need to contact your web host since they would be the ones who could configure that, typically.

I actually found a way to have the cookies accessible to the subdomains, which has resolved my problem!!
