There are a couple of things that can cause that:
1. Having your web traffic originate from multiple IPs.
Fix: take out a line of code in auth.pm. Ping me if you want it
2. Having a browser that swallows cookies.
Fix: Turn on "notify me of all cookies" and make sure things look ok
or make sure that RT is set to "send cookies to all scripts" aka the IE bug.
If neither of those are it, we should do some off-list debugging.
