All the mod_auth_smb-style modules do is provide Basic auth - not NTLM (i.e.
the "automatic" authentication).

As you say they all suffer from the fact that they are single-process so
that you end up re-checking the password against the domain controller for
every page - i.e. NO CACHING.

Currently I use the old mod_auth_external module which hooks into a bloody
perl script I wrote that has a GDBM backend - runs heaps faster than all the
rest.
