Temporary fix
Comments
1. When exact match of host, port, user name and password is found, use the connection. 2. If exact match of host and port is found which has no credential, look for credential matching the user name and password. If matching credential is found, then assigned it to the connection. Otherwsie, create a new credential and assign to the connection. 3. If no matching connection is found, then create connection. Look for credential matching the user name and password. If found, then assigned the credential to the newly created connection. Otherwise, create a new credential and assign.
