Are you using an old version of PHP? Don't use session_register(). Use
session_start() and then reference everything with the $_SESSION array.
In your code above, $logged_in and $username will not exist with
register_globals off. That may be leading to the errors you see later.

None if sessions are set up correctly on each machine and you're using
the same version of PHP at the same error reporting level.
