If the login is not working, the first thing to check is that the server is properly configured to save session information.
Use the session test page from the following thread to test the servers session management:
showpost.php?p=23826&postcount=2
if the session test fails, you will need to contact the host to have them correct the issue, most likely it is a bad session.save_path in the php.ini file.
