There's a patch in thread "mod_proxy's aside connections proposal"

Hi Eric,
Thanks for that reference!
Googling that, and looking at Yann's thread about his patch, and also the bug 
report that preceded that patch, am I understanding things correctly, that the 
problem with NTLM is that all the requests involved in "an" NTLM authentication 
have to go down the same persistent connection (from Apache to the target 
(e.g., SharePoint) machine?

The thing is that I thought that I've been able to get NTLM working, proxying 
through Apache, using "ProxySet keepalive=On" in a <Proxy> section, e.g.:
<Proxy http://sharepoint>ProxySet keepalive=OnSetEnv 
proxy-initial-not-pooled</Proxy>
So does the "same persistent connection" requirement mean that if I was doing a 
bunch of simultaneous NTLM logins through the Apache (e.g., to 
http://sharepoint) that some of the login attempts would kind of randomly not 
work (because requests not going down same connection to the SharePoint)?
Thanks,Jim
