That is the problem! I had the same problem with a proxy that balanced 
requests among 2 externals providers. You have to be stable with your 
public IP otherwise the cookie is invalidated.

I did to investigate into TYPO3's mechanism but personnaly, as I 
developped website from scratch with user login, I was always including 
some kind of protect mechanism to avoid cookie-theft.
