I found the solution to this was 2 parts, not sure why it varied since it was the same OS and setup.
Step 1 make sure that COOKIE_DOMAIN is set properly and with no port numbers (Either in .env or /config/sessions.php, whichever you use)
Step 2 make sure that the cookie name ( 'cookie' => 'whatever') inside of /config/sessions.php does NOT have an underscore in it. Laravel apparently has had issues with this.
Is the underscore in the session a legit bug? We're using an underscore in our current 5.3 application. We're planning to migrate later this year to 5.5 because of the LTS.
