When a user logs in, and they have checked "Keep me logged in", and they have a global user, the centralauth_Token cookie is only set for the wiki where they are logging in. It is not set for loginwiki, or any of the other SUL wikis. So the user will be logged out of all the other SUL wikis except the one where they logged in, if they close their browser and then return. I think we should also set it on loginwiki, so that they will be logged in centrally for 30 days. Other attached wikis can rely on the login check to log them in.
I remember this has been working before. Why was this changed in the first place?

(In reply to comment #1) > I remember this has been working before. > Why was this changed in the first place? Considering that all the auto-login logic and a fair bit of the regular login logic had to be rewritten, and in fact were rewritten several times during the development process as constraints shifted, chances are it was accidental.

Change is merged now, but leaving this open for the moment since this should probably be backported to wmf10 and wmf11, instead of waiting for wmf12.
