While, if I open Firefox (2 or 3 > version), it prompts for user and password. One other note: While FF does support NTLM, it does not do transparent auth as IE does. Hence the prompting for username/password. Furthermore, due to M$ having a broken implementation of NTLM, FF will at times repeatedly prompt ad infinitum. There is an open bug on this at Mozilla, (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=318253) but action on it is understandably slow. You can mess with FF's NTLM related settings under 'about:config' to gain some respite. You can also run a basic auth that authenticates against NTLM which for some reason seems to avoid the multi-prompt issue. Something like: auth_param basic program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-basic auth_param basic children 2 auth_param basic realm somerealm auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic casesensitive off Regards, Chris
