Comment #11 on issue 19474 by [email protected]: When behind NTLM firewall  
with multiple load balanced web proxies, Chrome asks for my  
username/password up to 8 times

Thanks for testing.  I read your bug report again and realized that I  
misunderstood
it.  My update won't help your bug.  Sorry.

Could you do an experiment with Firefox?

1. In Firefox's location bar, type "about:config".  If it shows the "This  
might void
your warranty!" warning page, click the "I'll be careful, I promise!"  
button.

2. In the "Filter" box, type "lm".

3. What is the value of network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-proxies?  Is  
it "true"?

4. If it is "true", please change it to "false".

5. Shut down and restart Firefox.

6. Browse to any external page.  Does Firefox behave like Chrome now?

Remember to change the value of network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-proxies  
back to
"true" after this experiment.

Your proxy.pac file returns one of four proxies.  Chrome temporarily saves  
the
password for each of the proxies, so you are expected to type  
username/password for
each proxy, but you should only need to type username/password at most four  
times.  I
don't know why you need to type username/password ~8 times.  Does Chrome  
ask you for
the username/password for the same proxy more than once?

Chrome has a password manager for saving username/password persistently.  I  
don't
know why it doesn't offer to save your proxy passwords.

Issue 19 is about grabbing your credentials automatically.
