" winbind privileged pipe permissions (Samba-3.X) ntlm_auth requires access to the privileged winbind pipe in order to function properly. You enable this access by changing group of the winbind_privileged directory to the group you run Squid as (cache_effective_group setting in squid.conf). chgrp squid /path/to/winbind_privileged " I've added squid group, added user nobody into it and put it in my squid.conf. But as you can see below, there's only read perms for squid group, so the error is still there. 4 drwxr-s--- 2 root squid 4096 2005-02-17 14:15 winbindd_privileged I don't know how the hell this worked for others, since other users from squid will only have read access to the dir, when they should have execute permissions too. Anyways, thanks for the answer.
