You can use a custom ICookieManager to dynamically return the cookie value to the CookieAuthenticationProvider based on whatever is in the request, to do this you would still maintain the CookiePath as "/" and then leave it up to the ICookieManager to return (or write) the cookie however you want. The CookieManager is an option on the CookieAuthenticationOptions. I blogged about this here: http://shazwazza.com/post/owin-cookie-authentication-with-variable-cookie-paths/
