Hello,
I'm in need of assistance and hope you can help. I have been using Squid
2.5.STABLE12, well, when I say "using" I mean "...swearing at...".
Generally the config is fine but I'd like to nail it down a bit more by
using ncsa_auth.
I have tried to use the config from a 2.4 STABLE6 box I use elsewhere. But
have had little success.
I've been permuting the conf to fine exactly what it's issue is and have it
down to:
"acl users proxy_auth REQUIRED"
which precedes:
"authenticate_program /usr/lib/squid/ncsa_auth
/etc/squid/proxy_users"
The error produced is:
"The connection was refused when attempting to contact the proxy
server you have configured. Please check your proxy settings and try again."
To help you, we would need more information, as eg. all your ACLs and
the http_access lines.
How did you install squid ?
Have you verified that ncsa_auth is at /usr/lib/squid ? Depending on the
installation method you chose, it might well be somewhere else. How does
your /etc/squid/proxy_users look ?

If you seek help in a public forum, it would be wise to leave out such
legalese. Obviously you posted this mail in a public list, so this is
meaningless anyway and lengthens the message unnecessarily for all list
users. Or what does "distribution prohibited" mean in the context of an
open mailing list that will be archived searchable in several public
archives ???
