[Phphelpdesk-help] IE COOKIE's quit working after i moved servers

[Paul Y. <yue...@ps...>]

Hello,

I am using an older version of of the PHP Helpdesk that our previous 
webmaster installed and when I moved it to a new server Firefox was 
working absolutely fine but IE kept on dropping me back to the Login 
Page after I had logged in. I checked the forums and found that other 
people were having the same problem...however, it was working fine on 
the previous box and it looks like the cookie and logout files were 
updated. if anyone could offer any help i would greatly appreciate it.

I've included the contents of phpinfo on both servers and the cookie, 
logout and general config pages,

thanks

Paul
