title: Laravel 5.2 login session not persisting
body: <p>I have been implementing a simple authentication system on Laravel 5.2 using <a href="https://cartalyst.com/manual/sentinel/2.0">Sentinel</a>. </p>
  
  <pre><code>// Route : /login
  $success = Sentinel::authenticate(array(
     'email'    =&gt; $email,
     'password' =&gt; $password,
  ));
  
  echo $success ? 'Login success' : 'Login failed';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So, the above code outputs <code>Login success</code> after the authentication code. But, the login status is not getting persisted to other requests. ie: if I check the authentication status from other requests, it is saying that I am not logged in!</p>
  
  <pre><code>// Route : test-login
  echo \Sentinel::check() ? 'User is logged in' : 'User is not logged in';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have even tried to implement a defaut laravel authencation using <code>\Auth::attempt</code>. But, that also giving the same thing.</p>
  
  <p>Any help on this is greatly appreciated.</p>
