[Zope-CMF] Browser ID Manager and Virtual Hosts

Hi everyone,

I have a CMF site that has several skins that are pointed to by Named
Virtual Hosts in Apache.  In other words, site1.name.com points to the site1
skin and site2.name.com points to the site2 skin.  I am running into
problems when I create session data for a user in one skin that is not
applicable to the other skin.  For example, a user logs in to skin1.
Session data is created.  They navigate to skin2.  The skin1 session data
shows up in this skin.  Even if I call session.clear(), the browser still
sends the cookie because the browser id manager cookie domain is set to
".name.com".  I guess this is how this should work, but I'd like to tie each
virtual host to the proper cookie domain.

My question:  Does anyone have experience with using a unique Browser ID
Manager for each skin?  Would this even solve this problem?

Using Zope 2.5.1, CMF 1.2, Linux 7.2

Thanks,

Kevin
