I haven't used the PEAR Auth package, but the problem is your cookies, as each 
has their own subdomain, which makes machine A can't read machine B's cookie, 
and machines from Colo1 can't read cookies from Colo2.

You need to see to that the PEAR Auth will be using internal.name as the 
domain name.

Until you have fixed that, there is no way you will get it to work.
I suggest you submit the patch upstream when you have fixed it, so someone 
else who wants to use PEAR Auth in the same way as you, can do it too.
