Session Lost Logout strange issue

the site is: .net 4.5, MP - 2.3.9.7 MSSQL

I have a site with many roles and users.

I recently created a few pages that I only designated to two groups.  when I use my admin account it works fine, I can see and edit the pages I designated.

when I have another MP admin use their account they login in try to view protected pages and they get booted back to login screen.

so I tried using their MP admin account on my computer and it works fine (I am at a different location).  so only in their network at their office they get booted back to the login screen on assigned role pages even if they have an admin account (which I did verify).

one thing I did notice not sure if it matters but when it does force them back to the login screen the address changes from WWW to no WWW.  I do not have any type of host forcing at all on the site.

I am wondering if this is a issue in MP,network or browser.  Work for me great just not them.  Weird..

Very strange and not sure where to start on this on so any help is appreciated.

thanks

Re: Session Lost Logout strange issue

an authentication cookie from www.somedoamin is not the same as from just somedomain so that part makes sense.

But there is nothing in mojoPortal that is going to change from a www url to a non www url, other than the option to force a specific host name (which you should do for SEO reasons) but then it would always stay the same ie there would not some urls with www and some without, so you must have a link hardcoded somewhere that changes the url or some kind of network issue where something else like a proxy server is changing the urls.

Seems to me that you should force a preferred host name and that should solve the problem.

This worked great, I forced the www host name and all is well.  Thanks Joe!
