simple-machines-forum

Hi guys I'm trying to integrate simple machines forum into my custom made membership website.

I'm using the SMF API which is available here at http://download.simplemachines.org/?tools.

The thing is that its working on my localhost testing server - however on my online server where the system is hosted - its not working.

I have set it up so that when the user log into my own custom CMS membership site, he/she is logged in automatically to his/her corresponding account on the forum. However it works on my localhost but online its not working at all.. I log into my site and then browse to the forum to find out I havent been logged in there :( - I think its not creating the cookies or registering the session.. where should I look here. Please do help.
