I'm playing with eZpublish 3.3.4 at RH9, MySQL, php and Apache right out of the RH9 CD's. When I access the site by a webbrowser throught my privat network all is working fine. But when I try to access the site direct on my Linux computer using Gnome and Mozilla I can't login to admin sites, neighter to user site with login. Every time I get the same login page back. If I give a wrong login or password I get a message screen telling me that this login and password are wrong.
I'm playing with all the demosites right out of the eZpublish install and using only default login and passworsd.
I have also enabled DebugOutput in site.ini but it tells me nothing about the problem. Of course I get some timestamping.
Why can't I login on my localhost?

I think RH 9 wash shipped with PHP 4.2.2. This PHP version has got a session bug, which can produce the problems you are having. Try upgrading PHP to the newest stable version.

I uppgrade my RH9.0 to Fedora 1 with Apache 2.0.47, MySQL 3.23.58 and PHP 4.3.3.
And I made a new eZpublish 3.3-5 installation with all eight sites. It seems to works well even on my localhost as well as from a webbrowser on my local net.
Thank's Jonny.
