Hi everyone, I'm a new Lyceum dev and we recently discovered an interesting 
problem while setting
up my installation. In short, you may have problems if you set MAINDOMAIN 
equal to 'localhost' in
wp-config. Wordpress will think it is successfully setting cookies for users 
while the browser
does not receive them. This has to do with the fact that the cookie spec 
outlines that there must
be a certain number of periods within the domain name, and of course 
'localhost' doesn't follow
normal domain name conventions. Thus you may need to use the server's actual 
IP address or
equivalent domain name for this variable.
