The current code will not that there is a pinned connection if a peer is used, as the pconn connection is stored under the key of the peer and not the requested site. Even with the proposed changes it won't work if there is more than one peer. To work when there is more than one peer the peer selection logics must me shortcircuited. > Will the current 2.6 code handle this case gracefully? The current code will only work in the direct case, not when using even a single parent. I haven't analyzed in detail what will happen, but it ain't going to be good.. > Wouldn't the connections need to be pinned when the server indicates > connection oriented auth so the client's request can go back to the same > server-side connection? Exacly, but only in response to client initiated connection oriented auth. Hmm.. actually not, the criteria is the client side, not server side. Connections need to be pinned when the client indicates connection oriented auth. If the client request was not carrying any connection oriented auth then the message is just an announce that the server is willing to do connection oriented auth. At least in the NTLM and Negotiate schemes we care about. Thinking. The correct method is to enable pinning of both sides as soon as connection oriented auth WITH details (not only the scheme name) has been seen from the client. From this point on until the server connection is gone or the client requests a different server the requests should short-circuit peer selection and always end up at this connection, which may either be a direct connection or a connection via a specific peer. If the server connection is lost then the process restarts and the client connection goes back to unpinned. A similar scheme is needed for connection oriented proxy authentication, but here the condition on the requested server does not apply. Regards Henrik
