Hi, I'm trying to get mysql authentication working, but I'm stuck. Any help is very welcome. I use squid 3.0 from an opensuse 11.1 distro. It's running on 3128 standard port and I redirect with iptables all requests to squid. Squid.conf contains a http_port 3128 transparent line and everything works in the standard way: Requests from a different computer are passed to the standard webpage if acl localnet src 192.168.2.0/24 is used and when changed to something else access is denied. So far so good. Now I added: auth_param basic program /usr/sbin/squid_db_auth --user bla --password bla --plaintext --persist with additional lines as described on the website, but I only get access denied as reply. When using the squid_db_auth perl script on a commandline it works fine with the mysql database: (using "testuser test" gets a OK) How does this work? I would suspect some login popup, or do I need to supply credentials as argument somehow?
