WordPress 2.6.2 and bbPress 0.9.0.2 are not compatible with cookies and logins. But I don’t think that would create this problem. Are you trying to have integrated users and logins between WordPress and bbPress?

Also, re: bb-config-sample.php, the web installer can take care of modifying the sample file and creating a bb-config.php. It didn’t used to do that, but it can take care of it now.
