Dear all,

When submitting the login ofrm at www.drupal.org/user, if the login is
successful the server sends back two cookies with the following attributes:
path=/; domain=.drupal.org; HttpOnly
but then lynx does not send back tese two cookies so the server
considers one is not logged in.

I asked for help on the drupal infrastructure mailing list but the
archives are unfortunately accessible only to members.
Anyway it follows from this discussion that not much can be done at the
server level and it sshould be lynx that must be configured so that it
accepts the cookies sent by drupal.org.

So I tried adding
COOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS:.drupal.orgCOOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS:.drupal.org
to the lynx.cfg file.
I also tried adding
ENABLE_LYNXRC:cookie_loose_invalid_domains:ON
to lynx.cfg and then dding
cookie_loose_invalid_domains=.drupal.org
to my personal .lynxrc file.

But none of these seem to work so I am asking for help.
Any suggestion would be warmly appreciated.

I'm able to login using the patch from ftp://invisible-island.net/temp
(which is from a recent bug report).  That'll be in 2.8.6dev.9
