--- now this is what i tried and i failed, but i believe i did not pass the
socket to the second easy handle. I thought if i will do it, then curl might
try to connect to the server again and open another connection and i do not
want this.

how can i pass socket (where this socket is created by the option
CONNECT_ONLY) to another easy handle and believe that curl will use the same
socket which is still connected to the server and will not open another one.
