Doing a google search I cant find that directive, does it even exist? Do you mean cachemgr_passwd? If squidmgr_password does exist as a directive, what is it used for? -----Original Message----- From: Michael J.

I tried the command omitting the -W switch. It asked for a WWW password. I tried a few passwords, including the root password. No joy. I also tried entering the following line at the end of our squid.conf file: squidmgr_password squid I restarted the squid service and tried again. Again, no joy. How do I (and what is the syntax) to add a password to the squid.conf file? After I make the changes, I need to restart the service / computer, correct?

The squidmgr_password can be found in your squid.conf file. Please keep the list in Cc, so that others may jump in and help if they wish to. -- /kinkie
