# I (or my users) cannot stay logged in to the forum!
If you still have problems try setting the cookie domain to your full domain name, eg.
http://www.mysystem.tld,
http://www.something.mydomain.tld. You must ensure the domain name contains at least two dots or browsers will be unlikely to recognise the cookie, eg. .mydomain.com, mydomain.com. Do not add http:// or anything else to the domain name!
# My users are complaining about being logged out too quickly!
You can increase the default length of sessions (ie. how long before a users session is considered 'dead') in Admin->General->Configuration->Cookie Settings->Session Length. Set it to whatever value your users feel comfortable with, remember that security issues may affect your decision (ie. having too long a session may allow non-users to abuse your board should a user forget to logout or otherwise leave a current session on a public workstation).

if all your settings are correct in the ACP then you might need to delete board cookies, and clear out the browsers cache and cookies then restart your browser again, have a read!

You have a problem in the cookie settings or server settings.
Please post up screenshots of both.
