I couldn't get it to work in the short amount time I had so I just set each one up separately. When I have some time, I'll look into this. So, if I set up a cookie man at the same level of the threads, it will keep track of each http request login? Also, I set up different threads so I could hit different pages for each user at random times to more simulate human behavior. It also allowed me to separate the responses by name and watch them as they hit the pages (view results tree). I'm sure there is a better way than mine but this worked for what we wanted at the time.
