Hi, I've written a custom authentication handler, which does seem to work. Reads from STDIN, Authenticates, and returns either OK or ERR on STDOUT back to squid. My next step, I want to allow a certain block of addresses http_acess, deny everyone else, but also allow any request that was successfully authenticated. I've got the following in squid.conf # Authentication scripts auth_param basic program /usr/local/libexec/squid/my_auth auth_param basic children 25 auth_param basic realm Proxy Authentication auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic casesensitive off The above seem to work. When using a browser, I am prompted for my username and password.... # ACL to setup authenticated users, as well as the src addresses of the static # addresses to allow through the proxy. acl local src x.x.x.x/y acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED # http_access rules. http_access allow local http_access allow authenticated http_access deny all Basically, what happens is that squid prompts for my username and password, yet, after I enter them, squid just sits there. Error log / access log shows nothing, and the browser eventually times out. This is with squid 2.5-STABLE9 A quick debug, shows that squid is never passing the information to the authentication script, so I'm not sure what I did wrong... My auth_param should be fine though, right??? -- Chris.
