Forum does not remember my login

Using the URL support.amigaos.net the forum does not remember my login details, while using forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz it does. I'm currently using Chrome under Win7/64bits. It may also be the reason why each time I'm trying to visit the forum from Timberwolf I have to login again (even when I specified the "remember me" option).
Chrome does seem to block any cookie when using support.amigaos.net

The cookie won't work if you enter the site from support.amigaos.net. It only works if you use forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz. I haven't had time to look into how to fix it to work with both yet.

Ok at least it's a know issue. As support.amigaos.net is the URL used in the notification messages sent by the forum it would be good to have this one working while looking for a solution to have both working at the same time?
A workaround can be to have one just redirect to the second URL, using HTTP redirect or anything else?

Yes I had the same problem and switched to forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz too.

I think I finally fixed this problem.

Instead of support.amigaos.net being an alias I added an Apache rewrite rule to change that to forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz. The phpBB software we use for the forums does not allow multiple names for the same site and likely never will so this is probably the best workaround.
