It turns out that it does work. I haven’t tried it with out load balancer yet, but with my test system, say foo.rutgers.edu, I got it to work doing two things in addition to the documented configuration:

In sakai.properties 

cookieDomain=.foo.rutgers.edu

In tomcat/conf/context.xml

<Context sessionCookieDomain=“.foo.rutgers.edu">

These cause the cookie to be accepted by subdomains.

Now I have to figure out how to get the load balancer to do the same thing or the cookie it sets.
