Hi, Hope i did not explained my problem clearly. squid is not configured as proxy. its configured as transparent proxy and i am running a web server in different location (Head office) which was configured htpasswd access. So anybody need to access the webserver should get authenticated. But after puting a cache server (squid) in my office (Branc office located in different place), i am not getting the webserver's authentication window.It directly giving me error page saying "authentication requirted". I need to know how to cinfigure the squid in the transparent mode to get the webservsers authetication window.
