I would recommend you to investigate using Digest authentication. Requires the passwords to be stored in a Digest hash in addition to the MD5/SHA1 system logon hashes. > I tried to use the digest_ldap_auth helper, but i understood that it was working > only with plaintext passwords stored in LDAP server.

You need either plain text or Digest HHA1 hashes. > Is there any solution to use digest_ldap_auth with MD5 or SHA1 ldap password, or > is there any other solution to secure communications between browser and squid > (no plaintext passwords ?) You could use ssltunnel or another SSL wrapper on the clients to wrap the proxy connections in SSL before they are sent to Squid, while waiting for the browsers to support encrypted proxy connections. Or reinvestigate the use of Digest. Regards Henrik
