Hi,

I have SquidNT (squid/2.5.STABLE3-NT-CVS) installed on a Windows 2003

You are lucky: STABLE3 is very old, and there are some bugs that can make this Squid build crash on Windows 2003. Please upgrade to STABLE9 or the latest STABLE10.

I want to use the
ncsa_auth.exe authentication helper that came with squid, but have not been
successful.  I can see in the cache.log that squid starts the ncsa_auth
helper, I'm not sure if I am writing the password file correctly.


For the password file, I have a file called password.txt, and I have a
username and a password separated by a colon: username:password.  Is this
correct?

No, you must create the passwd file with htpasswd or similar.
You can find a Window build of NCSA tools in the Squid for Windows download page.

Conf.cmd

echo  auth_param basic program D:/Squid/libexec/ncsa_auth.exe
D:/Squid/pwd/password.txt >> %CONFFILE%

Correct.

You can run ncsa_auth.exe from Windows command line and check if works.

Regards

Guido
