Description: ------------ The default session name is not "PHPSESSID", as stated in the method description on this page, but "_authsession" as indicated on the Auth Options page. "PHPSESSID" is the name of the session cookie, which isn't the same thing.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET). If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly. Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release. Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better. Actually, setSessionName is used to set the name of the session variable that's used, rather than the session name proper, so the documentation's pretty much all wrong. I've updated the documentation to reflect what setSessionName actually does.
