Hi Alan, I tried the following command /usr/lib/squid/squid_ldap_auth -R -b "dc=abcgroup,dc=local" -D "cn=Administrator,cn=Users,dc=abcgroup,dc=local" -h 192.168.10.3 I typed in the username and the password as you mentioned. It gave me ERR Sccess So its giving me an ERR and Success which again I dont know what it means?! And if I try /usr/lib/squid/squid_ldap_auth -R -b "dc=abcgroup,dc=local" -D "cn=Administrator,cn=Users,dc=abcgroup,dc=local" -f sAMAccountName=%s -h 192.168.10.3 and then typed the username and password it gives me an error -->squid_ldap_auth: WARNING, LDAP search error 'Operation Error' if I try it with the -w"password!" it gives me an err saying: bash: !": event not found So for some reason squid cannot recognise the ! symbol So, I dont know if i am typing the search string incorrectly????
