Terrific, I am making progress on this. The absense of the pam.conf
file in /etc is irrelevant since, according to the man page for pam,
the mere existence of the pam.d dir will cause pam to completely
ignore pam.conf. I have such a dir. However inside there is NO squid
file. My plan is to make one by doing this:
cp samba squid
since the samba file looks pretty simple and somewhat representative
of the config files inside pam.d. Whatsmore, there is nothing inside
samba that seems specific to samba, likewise with similar pam.d
config files such as sudo, etc. Also, the follow example I found on
the web is mostly the same but doesn't exactly match my system:
auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so
service=system-auth
password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so
service=system-auth
session required /lib/security/pam_stack.so
service=system-auth
Does anyone see any problems with this? I will try it and report
back the results.

This note may have been a bit premature. I installed pam-devel and
the make output is different, although the /etc/squid/libexec
directory I was expecting to appear is still not there. A
find -name *pam_auth* reveals there is such a file here:
./usr/lib/squid/pam_auth
which I suppose will work, but there is also no pam.conf file
anywhere to be found. I am running red hat 9. Shouldn't there be
a pam.conf file somewhere?
