Details

I have set up mambo 4.6 on a server with a domain name of littlegreenmarketstall.co.uk (28 chars total), I can log into Admin but as soon as I select an option, e.g. Static Content, I am directed back out of the admin area back to the Admin log in page.

Now if change the domain name to twinn.co.uk/~greenstall (23 chars total) and change absolutely nothing else then this problem miraculously disappears, and I have full control over the admin panel.

As admin I can change the site name via SSH and edit the configuration.php file but I worry that this problem will also apply to end-users who log in.

I have seen this http://tracker.mambo-foundation.org/?do=details&id=30 where the domainname (robert.whitacrefamily.com) is 25 chars and the end (/Ocelot-Unit/) is being stripped, would that be related?
