Hi
You should probably comment out multiple attempts to authenticate. In your second attempt you have spelt "quest" as "qust". You also haven't specified an OU for the user "Manager", or a -f parameter.
Try debugging at the commandline. eg: echo "username password" | /usr/lib/squid/squid_ldap_auth -b.......
You should get either a "OK" or an "ERR". Anything else, then you need to check your syntax and parameters.
In your squid.conf, all on the same line it should read something like this:
auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/squid_ldap_auth
-b "dc=quest,dc=com"
-D "cn=Manager,cn=Users,dc=quest,dc=com"
-w "my_password_here"
-f sAMAccountName=%s
-h 192.168.1.1This page gave me alot of help: http://kb.papercutsoftware.com/Main/ConfiguringSquidProxyToAuthenticateWithActiveDirectory
One thing that causes problems is if the password of the administrator (in your case, the user called "Manager") has non-alphanumeric characters. In my case, my problem was that the administrator password had an "!" in it, and I had to use an "\" before the "!", i.e. "\!".
