Awesome thank you.
This was an occasional hassle in 1.3, but once we upgraded to 1.4.2 it was a show-stopper. The NTP thing worked perfectly and I would never have dreamed up that. I owe you guys a doughnut.

It worked for me slightly different: setting the COOKIE LIFETIME to 0 - zero and commenting out the Cookie Params. Thank so much for you help.

Well, after hours spent on this issue I managed to solve it but in my case the issue was that the development server hostname that we were using had an underscore character in it (e.g. my_hostname.com). It seems it’s a well known fact that IE can’t store cookies if the hostname has underscore characters in it.

Heh, for once Microsoft followed a standard to the letter and it tripped you up.

thank you, I somehow changed my frontend admin Cookie Lifetime to 1, therefore not allowing me to edit anything in backend without having to log back in. This fixed my problem, cheers!
