How to get past Note:1484024.1 restriction that SSO and EBS servers be in same domain?

My SSO server is ssonewdev.company.com and my EBS instance is at oeafx.int.company.com. When I try to login via SSO, the authentication cookie is rejected by EBS and the most likely reason for that is what is stated in Note:1484024.1 under section 5.1 which states that the SSO server and EBS webentry URL MUST be in the same domain to avoid the cookie issues that I have.

I was able to create a DNS alias in /etc/hosts where the new name "oeafx.company.com" has the same IP as "oeafx.int.company.com". Then I updated the s_login_page and s_webentrydomain to company.com (no int) and ran AutoConfig. The SSO login process works fine now for this instance, but when I did a very similar process on another instance I started with company.com, went to ssonewdev.company.com, but then came back to EBS as int.company.com and "/fnderror.jsp?text=An+error+has+occurred" apparently because EBS did not like this domain flip in the middle of the login process.

Howdy, Stranger!
