Login cross first-level domain in Django

Question

I want to enable cross domain login in my django site, but I'm using first-level/top-level domain, i.e mysite.fr, mysite.en, mysite.uk...

I've tried something like that SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN = 'mysite.' but it don't works.

Any help?

Thanks,

What you're trying to do is share cookies between domains. Can be done by setting a cookie on one of your domains and checking for that cookie from another or synchronizing cookies between your domains (server-side).
