Hello Amos, I just realized that a variation using users from external auth does work by logging into specific log files. Below is the copy of the working config. auth_param basic program /usr/local/libexec/ncsa_auth /etc/squid/squid_passwd acl all src all acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl localnet src 172.16.0.0/12 # RFC1918 possible internal network acl localnet src 192.168.0.0/16 # RFC1918 possible internal network acl SSL_ports port 443 # RFC1918 possible internal network acl Safe_ports port 80 acl Safe_ports port 21 # http acl Safe_ports port 443 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 70 # https acl Safe_ports port 210 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # wais acl Safe_ports port 280 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 488 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 591 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 777 # filemaker acl CONNECT method CONNECT # multiling http acl shoutcast rep_header X-HTTP09-First-Line ^ICY.[0-9] acl ncsa_users proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access allow ncsa_users http_access allow manager localhost http_access allow localnet http_access deny manager http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow all icp_access allow localnet icp_access deny all http_port 8080 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? cache_dir null /dev/null access_log /var/squid/logs/access.log squid refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0 0% 0 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 acl apache rep_header Server ^Apache acl admin proxy_auth admin <---------************************** access_log /var/squid/logs/access_admin.log squid admin <---------************************** upgrade_http0.9 deny shoutcast via off broken_vary_encoding allow apache cache_effective_user _squid cache_effective_group _squid max_filedescriptors 5024 forwarded_for off coredump_dir /var/squid/cache On Mon, Oct 26, 2009 at 9:45 PM, Matthew Young <myoung24866@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Amos, > > Yes indeed all the other requests are getting logged to access_log > /var/squid/logs/access.log > > Ive tried logging based on mac address (yes iam on the same subnet), > and also as src IP.
