Re: FW: Allowing streaming media through NTLM Authentication

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Mathew,

You're matching against authenticated users, I'm using it against
wbinfo_group.

Anyway this should work, such as "http_access allow streaming_media
Streaming_allow" (Streaming_allow is an external acl for matching
against a group into the AD server). I didn't notice that browser regex
was case-insensitive(is it?).
Maybe the definitive solution would be using some "trickery" with
req_mime_type, req_header, rep_mime_type options.

I'm Just getting tired of this matter.

Hi Guys

I was able to work around this problem by matching on the streaming
media's User Agent string. My squid.conf looks like this:

acl AuthorizedUsers proxy_auth REQUIRED
acl streaming_media browser -i
"/usr/local/squid-2.6STABLE13/etc/user_agent.conf"
http_access allow streaming_media http_access allow AuthorizedUsers
And the user_agent.conf file looks like this:

nsplayer
windows-media-player
quicktime

Hi Dean,

how did you disable ntlm authentication? I want to allow certain
clients to bypass ntlm auth based on their IP address.

Thanks,

Gavin

Hi!

I'm somehow "Happy" I'm not alone with this problem...

I'm having this problem since squid 2.6STABLE9... (ALWAYS)

I've tried everything possible without success...

Let's try to get some progress on this matter, I'll dedicate some
time
to this soon (still this week or the next at most)

If you have any progress, please post it here.

Let's be sure of the problem... try accessing these radios:

http://www.radios.com.br/emissoras/transa_prpop.htm
http://www.radios.com.br/emissoras/transa_sppop.htm


The former uses http as protocol, so it will ask for user/password,
the latter uses mms as protocol, so it won't ask for user/password.
I get the same results using squid-2.6.STABLE13-1.RHEL4.

I have had to disable NTLM authentication (easy fix) for some sites
with
streaming media but to be honest I have not had the time to fully
investigate the cause.

Dean

As far as my small brain knows... that's mms that should be giving
headaches, not the http one!

Please post back if you get the same results, I have to show my boss
I'm right, I'm not alone and i DO KNOW how to configure squid. :D

I'll post here if I get it working, let's flame this discussion....
I
see everyone trying to get rid of streamings, but not trying to get
it
working without these "imperfections".

Thanks,

Mauricio

Hi

Apologies if this has been discussed before but I couldn't find a
solution for my exact problem in the archives.

I run Squid 2.6STABLE13 and have configured it to use NTLM
authentication for all client requests. This is working properly
for
standard traffic but I am hitting a problem with streaming media.

I'm aware that most streaming media can't handle NTLM
authentication
automatically and therefore when a user tries to access streaming
media a login box pops up. I don't want the users being asked to
authenticate so I'm trying to come up with a solution to instruct
the proxy server to not authenticate the streaming media.

I've tried matching on the streaming media mime types but ran into
the problem in that the mime type is in the response and not the
request and it is the request that is authenticated.

Has anyone dealt with this issue before and how did you go about
allowing streaming media through an authenticated proxy?

Regards,

Mathew Archibald
