Hey , I am trying to do a simple authentication script in perl. The Code #!/usr/bin/perl $| = 1; $userInfo = <STDIN>; open(lg, ">what.log"); print lg "$userInfo\n"; close(lg); print "OK"; With this code I'd assume that it would always authenticate no matter what since it statically prints OK I have the what.log file being used to simply show that squid connected to the perl script fine (which it does). When I run squid I get prompted to authenticate but no matter what I enter it always continues to ask me to authenticate. Any suggestions?
