RE: SSL logins not working
pure HYPOTHETICALS !!!...
the that.site.com versus this.that.site.com cookie concern is purely BOGUS... if that.site.com sets a cookie value of "itemid=172839;password=whatev;userid=whoev" and that cookie is carried over and given to this.that.site.com, if that site isn't looking for a cookie value of "itemid", then it simply gets dropped... if this.that.site.com is looking for a cookie value of "password" and/or "userid", yep, you bet your butt the cookie concern is an issue... BUT if anyone is using the same EXACT password for more than ONE site, then that person is bringing security threats upon themselves !!!... use the same EXACT password on a DOZEN sites, all the more merrily has that person made themselves quite VULNERABLE to hack-attacks... keep the same EXACT password YEAR-AFTER-YEAR, still more VULNERABLE... most BANKING sites will FORCE you to change your password every three to six months or so... here at prxbx, WHO CARES, keep the same password for DECADES - but on a BANK SITE? even a person that uses the same NAME, let's say "ProxRocks", on SEVERAL sites, that isn't passed the same way from one site to the next, the "userid" (aka, "mybbuser") doesn't 'say' "ProxRocks", it's a huge random runon string of characters... that huge random runon string will simply NOT be the EXACT random runon string from one site to the next, regardless of the NAME "ProxRocks" being the SAME... so carry one cookie over to the next site all you want, the ODDS are so infinitesimally minute that the contents of that cookie will mean anything to the other site is such that to concern yourself with it is total BS... let alone the infinitesimally minute chance of ever even bumping into a that.site.com versus this.that.site.com in the first place... take an infinitesimally minute number and multiply it by another infinitesimally minute number, therein is the mathematical odds of the cookie concern you are rambling on and on about... |
