If your user directory is a good one it should be possible to extend the
password storage to additionally store a Digest password hash solving
the above problems.

Please note that this is limited to single-user clients only. If there
is multi-user station (such as UNIX servers, Windows Terminal Server
etc) then this IP based scheme will obviously fail.

If you have multi-user stations, child proxies, internal NAT devices or
other situations where multiple users will come to your cache from the
same IP then the above scheme will not work very well as it sees them
all as the same user (the first one who logged in).
