cookie expire

Hi. We'd like to change the expiration date of a Cookie when a client comes in with a certain Useragent-string. Normally our users just get the default Cookie which expires after the session. ...

Hi Aaron, as I am not able to do the logging as you asked me to do, I figured, that it also happens with any other User-Agent, for example "Galeon":

 

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091023 Galeon/2.0.7 (Ubuntu 2.0.7-1ubuntu2)

 

 

This is the User-Agent string, but it only gets the Cookie with modified expiry when it has no Cookie.

 

While Firefox gets a normal Cookie.

 

So it is the update or the recognizing of the Cookie, which seems not to work with this iRule.
