Goal: to provide users in a small subnetwork access to internet on mobile devices without having them authenticate with the main gate proxy themselves, going through a child proxy (squid). The child proxy setup should authenticate to the parent proxy and allow the mobile devices through itself without question. However, despite having the login/password in the config, squid does not appear to authenticate to the parent proxy.
