Hi We are running squid 2.6-21 (as bundled with Centos 5.3) and are trying to configure a reverse proxy for an intranet webserver that requires authentication. This is so that users can conect to the squid server and see the authenticated content without providing a username and password. I was hoping that by configuring cache_peer with the LOGIN=Username:Password option that squid would login to the webserver and be able to obtain the content. However, when I try this I still get prompted for my credentials which if I supply them works fine. Is it possible to provide access to the authenticated content via this method or would we have to follow another approach?
Sounds like a) you may need to use lower case for 'login=', or b) your squid is not sending the requests through that configured peer. What does your http_access and cache_peer* config look like?
