So given that products like dansguardian (assuming this is one solution) (in a school/corp environment) need to be purchased, would the logical choice be to just go and start using Squid 3 with ICAP?I'm a little green on how this works, if theres a link I could visit that explains it in true detail that would be appreciated.Could I still integrate NTLM with squid 3 and ICAP? The NTLM authentication is going to be a deal-breaker for me. Thanks again for the input.Regards,Michael
AFAIK dansguardian works as a secondary proxy chained off Squid. No ICAP involved, though other things like AV scanners may need it.
It's easy enough to change Squid versions during testing phase if one version is not up to the task.
NTLM auth of clients to authenticate with the proxy is supported in all current Squid. 3.0 is only missing the bit which lets you authenticate against external websites using client machine NTLM credentials. It's on 3.1 instead (which while we recommend testing it first, is ready for limited production uses).
Amos -- Please be using Current Stable Squid 2.7.STABLE6 or 3.0.STABLE15 Current Beta Squid 3.1.0.8 or 3.0.STABLE16-RC1
