i did this... telnet'ed to port 80 and grep'ed the returned
html by eye... the cookies were there...
i finally nailed the problem down to the browser -- for some odd reason netscape didn't like the domain *and/or* the path arguments, since removing the domain argument made everything work out just swell.
thanks to fpi for his/her suggestion --
trimming back the arguments to the CGI::cookie method
to just the -name and -value parameters when troubleshooting is the way to go.
(bolded to indicate importance for the skimmers amongst us ;-) )

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
