Thanks Jason for the referrals. WPAD purpose is solid but there is an option to create a WPAD/PAC file on the fly and on the background authorize the client user name with a specific ip. Some restrictions can be applied on the use of a specific user to be used only with one IP at a time which is similar to some AD features. WPAD can be used with authorization and it should be like any other http\s resource and the user + password can be written inside the url similar to ftp URL. Windows specifically has a daemon\script\service that does the WPAD\PAC file and there for all the limitations are to this service only. In any other system these limitations might be the same but I didn't tested any of these yet. I might add this to my TODO list.
