Ok, #1 should be all set wbinfo -t -g -u all work correctly #2,3 should be all set (did not work so I went as far as making the squid user and squid group owner of the folder and all the children and assigning 777 for the permissions, just to make sure) #4 should be all set but things are still not working (same message), when I check the cache.log file it says "utils/ntlm_auth.c:get_winbind_domain(146) could not obtain the winbind domain name!", also I setup the proxy on my ibook and pointed firefox to the proxy it gives me the same error in the browser but it does not even ask me for any login info; I would expect the pc not to ask because it is a member of the domain but the I book should at least ask, the msad acl is the first one so it should be hitting that one first.

How to use Samba ntlm_auth is the same since Squid-2.5/Samba-3.0 days.. 1. Install Samba and join the domain. 2. Set up a suitable system group for winbind authentication, and chgrp the Samba privileged_pipe directory to this, with at least x permission for the group. 3. Make your cache_effective_user member of the above group. 4. Configure squid.conf as you have done. Regards Henrik -- This message was scanned by ESVA and is believed to be clean.
