Thanks Oleg. I can't simply use http client's ntlm stuff due to lots of other \
complications. That's why I said in my original mail that I want to only use \
httpclient connection reuse functionality as mentioned in the link I pasted earlier.

I only want to make sure that after ntlm authentication, connection is used only by \
same user.. Is it possible somehow? What if I cache httpclient object per user? Or \
cache http context per user? Will this help? If connection is held in http context \
then using same context every time for that user should give me connection of that \
user, is that correct?
