Hello all, I really get a strange ( maybe not ?? ) problem. I get Squid 2.7.4 running on Solaris 8 with Samba 3.0.32. My clients are essentially running Windows XP SP2 with IE6. authentication scheme is exclusively based on ntlm so this is the reason why winbindd is also running, smbd and nmbd are not running because I think this is not needed. this is all working fine but I randomly get thousands of lines appearing in cache.log file .. see below what I get. [2008/12/04 10:10:57, 0] utils/ntlm_auth.c:winbind_pw_check(515) Login for user [DOMAIN]\[user]@[desktop] failed due to [winbind client not authorized to use winbindd_pam_auth_crap.

We are already running squid more than 3 years and never got the problem before .. Can somebody really help me because each time we encounter this issue hundreds of my users are impacted. many thanks for your help.
Please first ensure that you DO NOT have cache_effective_group configured in your squid.conf. All squid group settings under this setup need to be OS-defined correctly and working properly that way.
