From: "Chris Knipe" <savage@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
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
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???
How are you reading the STDIN in your script? I recently was shown how:
#!/bin/sh
while read INP; do
x = `echo $INP | /usr/lib/squid/ldap_auth -R .........`
....Previous methods of reading from STDIN resulted with similar time-outs to yours.
Perhaps if you cut and paste the relevant parts of your script, someone may be able to help debug.
