Hello everyone from the list. I am using squid_ldap_auth in order to authenticate in a Windows Active Directory. When the command squid_ldap_auth is issued from a command line, it works well. But when using a browser, the prompt for user/password dont't appears. And I can surf the web normally. The child processes for authentication are started. I searched the list without success for a solution. If I comment external_acl_type entry the behavior is the same. Any suggestion are welcome. Follow my squid.conf: auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid_ldap_auth -R -u cn -b "dc=domain,dc=com,dc=br" -D "cn=USERPROXY,ou=Internet,dc=domain,dc=com,dc=br" -w "proxyuserpassword" -f sAMAccountName=%s -h ldap://10.0.0.5 -v 3 -p 389 auth_param basic realm Internet control auth_param basic children 5 auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic casesensitive off external_acl_type ldap_group %LOGIN /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid_ldap_group -R -b "dc=domain,dc=com,dc=br" -D "cn=USERPROXY,ou=Internet,dc=domain,dc=com,dc=br" -w "proxyuserpassword" -f"(&(objectclass=Person)(sAMAccountName=%v)(memberof=cn=%a,ou=Internet,dc=domain,dc=com,dc=br))" -h ldap://10.0.0.5 acl domainusers proxy_auth REQUIRED acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl internalnet src 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl SSL_ports port 443 563 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 563 # https, snews acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl Sage_ports port 8080 # aplicacoes Tomcat acl CONNECT method CONNECT acl bloqueio_palavra url_regex "/usr/local/squid/regras/bloq_palavra" acl bloqueio_dominio dstdomain "/usr/local/squid/regras/bloq_dominio" acl spyware url_regex "/usr/local/squid/regras/blacklistspy" # Only allow cachemgr access from localhost http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager # Deny requests to unknown ports http_access deny !Safe_ports # Deny CONNECT to other than SSL ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access deny bloqueio_palavra http_access deny bloqueio_dominio http_access deny spyware http_access allow internalnet http_access allow domainusers http_access deny all Thanks Marcelo Koehler
