But there is a problem with Ident : deployment. Installing Ident on all clients takes time so i want to find an other solution. I search about using NTLM authentication because the majority of client runs Windows so there is nothing to install for NTLM. > > First, i want to know if i can use NTLM authentication with ACL in order to filter traffic according to the username? I suppose i can but i'm not sure. Yes. That's most of its purpose. > I also want to know if Samba is required to use NTLM authentication or if there are others solutions? There are other solutions, but Samba is highly recommended. > And finally, i want to know if it works with Terminal servers? With Ident, if i use terminal server, dansguardian don't know the real username but user which runs Identd on the server. Does it? I don't know about Windows identd implementations, but on Unix identd usually returns the name of an user owning the TCP socket (unless otherwise configured) -- Kinkie <kinkie-squid@xxxxxxxxx>
