can't log into website cached by varnish

Hi Tobias,

I guess as soon as you pass login, you use different URL as login.php

Ok! Thanks for that tip. I can give that a try. But, wouldn't that require
you to know the particular name of the cookie? What if you're dealing with
multiple users? Is there a generic you can pass in place of
'my_cookie_login'?

Thanks
Tim
