Ok, to reexplain, here is what i did.
I got a vps, got a bunch of ips from my host, had them assigned to my
vps, and I put centos 5.2 minimal i386 on it.
I install squid (squid-3.0.STABLE13).
I set up my squid.conf like this (examples only not actual ips, and
only essential parts shown/yes, ncsa auth)
acl username1 proxy_auth username1
acl username2 proxy_auth username2
tcp_outgoing_address 77.242.48.151 username1
send traffic from 77.242.48.151 when username1 making the request.
tcp_outgoing_address 77.242.48.152 username2
send traffic from 77.242.48.152 when username2 making the request.
Picks first IP assigned on default interface when anyone other than
username1 and username2 are making the request (if allowed).
http_access allow username1
http_access allow username2
Assuming thats all...
Implicit deny for anyone not username1 or username2.
After this I :qw to get out of vi and back to the regular ssh part.
I then htpasswd -c /etc/squid/squid_passwd username1
(-c is to create the password file)
Then I add additional users like this (since there's a bunch, I end up
at like username81):
htpasswd /etc/squid/squid_passwd username2
Finally, I restart squid and NORMALLY it works fine. "Works fine"
means I do this in Firefox:
Tools -> Options
Then click the Advanced Icon
Then the “Network” tab, then "Settings..." button
Then click the “manually configure proxies” radio button, and enter
the proxy address and port in the HTTP Proxy area., OK, OK,
then go to www.whatismyip.org, a new window will pop up, enter
username and password provided, and then see if the proxy is now my
new IP.
PROBLEM: Normally this works but for some odd reason on my new vps,
it will only allow the FIRST ip i set up (meaning the one i used the
command :htpasswd -c /etc/squid/squid_passwd username1") and the rest
it simply rejects the username/password combo. WHY???
Downright weird, since htpasswd has nothing to do with IP addresses.
Are you sure you added (-b) ALL the username/password combos to the
/etc/squid/squid_passwd file after doing that create (-c) command?
Like this:
htpasswd -c /etc/squid/squid_passwd username1
htpasswd -b /etc/squid/squid_passwd username2
htpasswd -b /etc/squid/squid_passwd username3
...
If so , also check your auth settings. You may have set a limit on the
number of IPs per user, or users per IP (Squid default is to accept any
amount).
This is the problem, please respond with your solutions.
Thanks!

The problem is this, i am using this
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/source/SRPMS/squid-3.0.STABLE13-1.fc11.src.rpm.
mmmkay?
I completely install it into a Centos 5.2 minimal i386 vps. It's got
unmetered bandwith and 1gb ram with 10 gb disc space. Totally enough.
So, when I restart squid after installing, it will only accept the
FIRST ip i entered. The rest? Will NOT accept the login.
So I contact my linux expert buddy who tests on his end and he is able
to login totally fine. OMG.
Then I login and it works. I look dumb. He thinks im crazy.
1 hour later? Same problem, every ip will not login except the 1st
one I entered. And yes I -c to create the squid password file.
I mean, the password prompt comes up for all the other ips, but when I
enter the password it rejects the username/password combo. WHY??
Please PLEASE somebody help me.
We can but try.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by login.
Are you:
- logging in to the proxy, to use it from a different PC?
- logging in to some website through the proxy?
Also, what is your squid.conf config (without the comment lines) please?
