[squid-users] Authentication required, but not always passed:

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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
