Is anyone else finding that they have to re-authenticate their log-in on a daily basis for each computer they use at the moment, or is it just me? I have cookies enabled for this site and geocaching.com. It's been going on for a few days now, and as I use several computers it does get rather annoying.

Twice during last week we had to drop all sessions due to some issues with as server. This should not be a normal behaviour though.

We have chosen to use the authentication as a login process to avoid having username and passwords at our site. This because we really want to avoid having full access to geocaching.com accounts (and it's very likely the majority would use the same credentials). Therefore, each client has to authenticate again if we drop our session data.

Thanks - I just wanted to make sure that the problem wasn't my end. I've no problem with authentication provided it's not something I need to keep doing.
