Hello, I am new to squid.
I installed it on MacOS X using Fink.
It works but I cannot use simple authentification.
I tried to use ncsa_auth, but it's not installed on MacOS X (10.4.9 or
10.5.3).
So I don't know if I must install ncsa_auth on my system (I don't know
how), or if I must use another authentification system.
Maybe ncsa_auth is just for Linux and I must use something else on MacOS
X...
Or maybe my Fink installation is not so good...
Can you help me please?
Start with a check on the version of Squid installed. Last I saw the
fink repositories had a seriously obsolete version of Squid-2.5.
Anything that builds on Linux has an equivalent that builds on MacOS X.
Might be windows-only, but unlikely. If you can't locate a current
squid bundle to install you might try getting someone at fink to update
it and add NCSA for you.
Or building it from source yourself. Not too hard, with a step-by-step
help in the http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq
