I'm working on a new squid installation, where squid users need to be authenticated to Active Directory via Kerberos. I've read several configuration examples and I can't remember how many how-to guides, but I must be overlooking something simple. I'm running squid 3.0STABLE18 on CentOS 5.4 in a Hyper-V environment. The KDC/AD server is Windows 2008 R2 (we have many 08R2 servers, and one 2003). I've tried IE8 and Firefox Windows XP Pro, and IE8 on Server 2008, as clients. Problem: Whenever trying to use the proxy, the browser prompts the user for authentication three times, and then returns a "ERROR: Cache Access Denied." message. The following appears in cache.log: 2009/11/24 11:34:04| squid_kerb_auth: Got '[...block stripped by AMS...]' from squid (length: 2195). 2009/11/24 11:34:04| squid_kerb_auth: gss_accept_sec_context() failed: Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may provide more information.

I'm lost. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I might be overlooking or doing incorrectly? Thanks! --- Andrew Michael Stemen andrew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
