session timeout login again 1.5 -- BIG problem

Just updated to 1.5. Perfect installation seemingly. However on my computer I frequently get the message "session timout login again", but I do manage to login. On another computer, moodle blocks at the "timeout" message. This is similar to the problem I had with 1.4.5 -- logging in from other computers was iffy, but I did see the site home page.

Have removed "www." from configuration.php as Martin once advised. Makes no difference.

When I do this test:http://yourserver/moodle/lib/session-test.php

I get "No session found - starting a session now" and reloading immediately reports session found. Is this the problem?

If it is a server problem, what should I tell my server to do?

Would appreciate some clue as to why the computer itself seems to make such a difference.

p.s. my directory is not named "moodle" but the configuration page has all the right information

session-test.php is outdated and does not work, the diagnostic check was moved to login page itself.

There is no timeout limit in moodle session code, IMHO it is a server problem.
