Is the following also true when using other methods of Authentication, I use ntlm_auth and notice that my logs still show lots of entries without usernames, this being the case they get sent to the default profile in the redirector. I do have Auth required but it seems if a station authenticates, then it isn't asked for credentials each time, since it's not required for every request, then username is not always passed on to the redirector...is there a way to force this when IDENTD is not the method for getting userid's? Is it the same? To quote the FAQ on Redirectors and identd: 15.7 Redirector interface is broken re IDENT values I added a redirctor consisting of #! /bin/sh /usr/bin/tee /tmp/squid.log and many of the redirector requests don't have a username in the ident field. Squid does not delay a request to wait for an ident lookup, unless you use the ident ACLs. Thus, it is very likely that the ident was not available at the time of calling the redirector, but became available by the time the request is complete and logged to access.log. If you want to block requests waiting for ident lookup, try something like this: acl foo ident REQUIRED http_access allow foo
