Ok, that makes a bit more sense. If you create a single instance of a interface variable and reuse it with the PreAuthenticate flag set, then it should use the same HTTP connection (and the same WWW-Authenticate header). But, saying that, I remember there being an issue with a version of apache we were using back on 4.x where KeepAlive connections with POST requests was broken so we disabled the KeepAlives to avoid this issue. I'm not sure if that carried over to our new platforms or not but you can find out by searching for "KeepAlive" in the /config/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file. If you find a value of "Off" for that configuration variable then Keep-Alives have been turned off.
