Hi Im running FreeBSD 4.9 and 4.11. What im trying to do is setup squid-2.5-Stable10 to allow authentication using the Negotiate patch. http://devel.squid-cache.org/projects.html#negotiate. The patch applies fine, the compile completes no errors, everything on squid side seems to work fine. I have Samba 3.0.10 installed, winbindd works fine, wbinfo -u produces all the correct results. The problem comes in that, wb_authntlm cannot contact winbindd. I get this error. "wb_ntlmauth[466](wb_ntlm_auth.c:414): Can't contact winbindd. Dying". I spent some time reading the mailing lists, and I see they talk about the samba winbindd interface changing quite a lot. I was wondering if this interface changed, and squid-2.5-Stable10 was updated to use a new version of Samba 3 than I am currently running? If so, what is the furtherest back samba-3.x that squid-2.5-StableX will work with, cause I ran into another problem trying to use the very latest samba 3 release from ports. ===> samba-3.0.20,1 Broken dependency between OpenSSL, OpenLDAP and Heimdal for FreeBSD 4.x. Disable ADS support. Which is a problem cause I am actually trying to use squid to auth using Negotiate against a Windows 2003 AD/KDC. Any suggestions or help or information would be gladly appreciated. Regards /Cole
