I\'ve been struggling with this for quite awhile and haven\'t been able to
find a solution. I need a user to be able to view multiple top level
domains with a single login.<
Your question is not really precise enough IMHO. Do you want a single cookie for all Rails apps you have or is it within the context of a single one? If the former, you want to look at solutions using database-backed sessions or something along the line of RubyCAS to implement the CAS protocol.
