I'm played around this problem too, can you please verify if the problem is
gone when you are disabling SSL ? (simply change the SECURE_SERVER variable
to something beginning with http:// instead of https:// )

My experience is that SSL is'nt the problem in this case.

Some times the checkout is working an I can select an shipping in multi/shipping
and sometimes I can't. I'm loosing the session between multi/checkout and multi/shipping.

I have three simple based test-catalogs on my test system (FreeBSD-5.0-current, and MV4.04)
                                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^      ^^^^^^
with an without SQL and all are behaving the same way.

Can please someone with an other OS verify this ?

The problem seems only to occur with cookies disabled and MULTIORDER = 1
regardless of the setting from

mv_add_dot_html
mv_no_session_id
mv_no_count

I'm trying to find out WHY the session id is getting to hell because I try
to avoid to force our customers to use cookies.
