Hi.

Trying to understand why I'm getting what appears to be different
values (for request cookies) from the browser (FF) and the cmdline
curl (centos).

I'm using the url
 https://smccis.smc.edu/smcweb/f?p=118:1:1099677479717

In the browser, I examine the firebug network/cookies data and I get:
-ORA_WWV_APP_118:"ORA_WWV-jMu08G5jY_5pTpZnTfWHF7RX"
-ORA_WWV_USER_61917392119870:"ORA_WWV-IAmUD0LPRXrHnrE6LuZj7pJM"
-_ga:"GA1.2.1168176653.1531572004"
-_gid:"GA1.2.232116952.1531572004"

I then copy the "cURL" cmd from the firebug dialog, which results in:
curl 'https://smccis.smc.edu/smcweb/f?p=118:1:1099677479717' -H 'Host:
smccis.smc.edu' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64;
rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0' -H 'Accept:
text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8' -H
'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' --compressed -H 'Cookie:
ORA_WWV_APP_118=ORA_WWV-jMu08G5jY_5pTpZnTfWHF7RX;
ORA_WWV_USER_61917392119870=ORA_WWV-IAmUD0LPRXrHnrE6LuZj7pJM;
_ga=GA1.2.1168176653.1531572004; _gid=GA1.2.232116952.1531572004' -H
'Connection: keep-alive' -H 'Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1'

Running this curl cmd from the cmdline the resulting content is the
same as the browser source code.

However, when I change the curl cmd to use cookie/cookie-jar, I don't
get the same cookies!!!

curl -L 'https://smccis.smc.edu/smcweb/f?p=118:1:1099677479717' -H
'Host: smccis.smc.edu' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64;
rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0' -H 'Accept:
text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8' -H
'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' --compressed --cookie-jar a.lwp
--cookie a.lwp -H 'Connection: keep-alive' -H
'Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1'

Given that this is the 1st url of the site, I would expect to get the
exact same request cookies.

So I'm trying to understand what's going on, and how I can generate
"both" cookies using the cmdline curl to have the same response
cookies as the browser.

My reason for trying to get the cookies in the external cookie file -
to be able to pass/use the cookies in subsequent "curl" cmds from the
cmdline.

thoughts/comments???

thanks!
