I need to code a Drupal module to handle single sign-on integration with an existing custom cookie-based authentication system. Basically the module needs to handle user account creation, auto-login, and auto-logout based on the status of the cookie. Can someone point me to existing modules that do similar things? I know this is a problem space that has been covered before, and I'd like to take advantage of existing code and best practices as much as possible.

Thanks!

Take a look at http://drupal.org/project/webserver_auth . It's fairly straightforward and you should be able to use it as a skeleton to integrate with your proprietary auth system.
