Login problem with recent nightly

Hey guys,
I installed the latest nightly snapshot on my local machine (Debian Etch, Apache 2.2.3, PHP 5.2.0). Once I'm logged in to that installation, a click on any link in the admin panel's menu leads back to the login screen where I have to log in once again, so I can't do anything in that blog.
Any idea why this happens?

Hi!
Does this only happen with the latest nightly? Or with 1.1.2 as well?
If it happens on 1.1.2 as well, your PHP sessions on your localhost might not be properly setup, or your browser rejects 'localhost' cookies.
HTH,
Garvin

Only with the latest nightly (and with the one before the latest). I have a 1.1.2, erm, sorry, still 1.1.1 on that machine also which works perfectly.

Hi!
Maybe you can report that here:

I believe there already was a mention that if you use "localhost" as the server host name, cookies might not get stored properly. Perhaps you can use the IP to access the blog instead of your network hostname?
Regards,
Garvin

Erm, I don't see any connection (which might be because I don't understand all that coder babble
) ..?

That does indeed work, thanks.
