Hello,

I used Darwinport to install squid this time.
So I have a newer version : squid @2.7.STABLE6_0+darwin_9

But I have same problem : ncsa_auth does not exist...

What should I do?

Okay, lets see if we can track down any particular reason why its missing from MacOSX then get it going. - I can see no messages in the code anywhere about disabling it specially for Mac. So it should build.

1) with the self-build attempt did you remember to add "NSCA" to the basic-auth helper list?
  --enable-basic-auth --enable-basic-helpers=NCSA

Thanks

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
