Logout Issues W/ Smf, won't logout, autologout

[shadow1031]

I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and SMF:
I've searched and it's not the error I see most peopel having.  When I login to the forum, goto the gallery, then try to go back to the forums, it automatically logs me out.  The one time I clicked the "Always logged in" option for SMF it wouldn't let me logout till I cleared my cache.  Sorry if this has been answered but searching came up w/ nothing.  Any help would be appreciated.

Coppermine install: http://www.theshadowserver.net/gallery/
Forum install: http://www.theshadowserver.net/forums/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.9

test account workd for me. Same old line - Either enable subdomain independent cookies in SMF or be consistant with your use of www.

Doh! Stupid me (was the www thing.)  Thought I had changed it.

Note: Trying to install programs and set them up correctly after being up for almost 18 hours = making stupid mistakes/posts. Sorry to even have asked this now lol.
