Even if, in response to connection:didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge,
I give NSURLConnection a credential with persistence
NSURLCredentialPersistenceNone, I still find that subsequent
connections to a server do ^not^always^ give me additional
connection:didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge messages. Therefore, if
I have more than one user account with that server, how can I
arbitrarily change accounts in the middle of a session?
Because this all goes on under the hood of NSURLConnection, I can't
see what's happening with subsequent requests. Either
(a) NSURLConnection is sending a stored credential with
subsequent requests,
or (b) the server is skipping its 401 authentication request, ("I
know you"),
or (c) NSURLConnection is responding to subsequent 401s with a
stored credential.
If I knew what was going on, (a) (b) or (c) I could at least point my
finger and ask some intelligent questions.
I can't read the answer using tcpflow because this is https, encrypted.
I'd much appreciate any help in any of the above directions.
