since you're on win2k server, my assumption is that you're running iis5. if you're running apache, etc. ignore the rest of this reply.
rdp into the server, open the internet information services manager and get the properties on your am2 site.
under the 'home directory' tab. in the bottom third of the dialog box there is the application settings. there should be an application name, it can be the default application or a custom one you create when you enable script execution. if scripts execution isn't allowed i don't think iis generates session cookies and your browsers and am2 will have nothing to work with.
once scripts execution is set, click the 'configuration' button. the next dialog box shows the 'app mappings'. click the 'app options' tab and see if the 'enable session state' is checked. if not, check the box and a default timeout value is offered, usually 20 minutes. apply the changes, click okay. apply changes to the previous dialog, click okay. close or minimize the iis services manager.
now try to login to am2. if this cures it then the master settings for iis are probably set to the most conservative ones - static website, no .asp pages and no server-side processing. and these propagate to each new site instance.
