It sounds as though you are using the CookieCrumbler (as you would
by default) and that the "path" for the cookie is set to a subpath
in your site (which wouldn't happen by default).

Have you by chance customized the 'setAuthCookie' skin method
(perhaps to create persistent auth cookies?)  If so, check that the
'path' beeing passed to 'resp.setCookie' scopes your whole site.
