Hello,
i?m using Squid Version 2.6.STABLE21 with squid_ldap_group auth helper for authenticating groups of users.
My problem is that some groups need to access certain sites only, but these sites contain links to other external content outside the whitelist causing squid popping up the annoying login box repeteadly. Is there a way to make squid follow (or deny) those links without annoying the user?
I simply would like that auth is requested just once.. if the user is not allowed, just deny it without requesting authentication again?
What do you mean "again"? To get auth popups means they are not
authenticated at all yet. Were they already authenticated something must
have gone badly.
Your config confirms that. Anybody visiting the whitelist gets through
without authenticating at all.
The instant they go anywhere else they are verified for authentication
and the blacklist tested.
To let people browse the web without auth popups is to remove auth
completely, or to whitelist every site they need to visit. There seems
to be somethign broken if the login box is popping up repeatedly.
You might try auto-blacklisting anything not whitelisted which is
referred to from the whitelist sites.
Something like this just after the whitelist itself will prevent _any_
non-whitelisted link from a whitelisted page without involving auth:
acl whiteRef referer_regex "/etc/squid/whitelist"
http_access deny whiteRef
Be careful though. If you make that an auto-allow you enable anybody on
access the proxy by sending an easily forged header to you.
You will also need to do something to let people click on actual wanted
links on those whitelisted pages.
Here?s my configuration (squid.conf) snippet:
