Hi list! I have a problems with Squid and winbind auth. There is a couple of sites (internal CMS systems and external banking sites) what have the same problems - users can not send attached data files using html web forms (http POST method). We have Squid and Samba/winbind scheme what perform auth of users against AD domain via NTLM. Everything works just fine except this mystical POST problems. It looks like this: === 1276593195.910 256 10.1.2.20 TCP_DENIED/407 4500 POST http://www.site.com/admin.php? - NONE/- text/html 1276593195.919 7 10.1.2.20 TCP_DENIED/407 4706 POST http://www.site.com/admin.php? - NONE/- text/html === And if I make a hole in auth for POST method using: === acl POST method POST acl POST_whitelist dstdomain "/etc/squid/POST_whitelist.txt" http_access allow POST POST_whitelist all === and try to send file via form, then all is working fine again: === 1276593290.237 438 10.1.2.20 TCP_MISS/200 6752 GET http://www.site.com/admin.php? USER01 DEFAULT_PARENT/10.1.4.2 text/html 1276593290.303 2 10.1.2.20 TCP_DENIED/407 4582 GET http://www.site.com/n.php - NONE/- text/html 1276593290.307 1 10.1.2.20 TCP_DENIED/407 4788 GET http://www.site.com/n.php - NONE/- text/html 1276593290.490 180 10.1.2.20 TCP_MISS/200 413 GET http://www.site.com/n.php USER01 DEFAULT_PARENT/10.1.4.2 text/html 1276593305.751 12342 10.1.2.20 TCP_MISS/302 817 POST http://www.site.com/admin.php? - DEFAULT_PARENT/10.1.4.2 text/html 1276593305.755 1 10.1.2.20 TCP_DENIED/407 4680 GET http://www.site.com/admin.php? - NONE/- text/html 1276593305.761 1 10.1.2.20 TCP_DENIED/407 4886 GET http://www.site.com/admin.php? - NONE/- text/html 1276593306.106 344 10.1.2.20 TCP_MISS/302 722 GET http://www.site.com/admin.php?

Anyway, it seems that InternetExplorrer 8 (and Firefox 3 as well) do not performs additional auth iterations then they get first 407 while POSTing data. I been trying to overcome this problem by using squid configuration directives like "auth_param ntlm keep_alive on/off", "no_cache" and "ie_refresh on/off". Unfortunately - no luck for me :( Is there any solution for this problem except "acl POST hole" I made? Any help is highly wanted. Thanks in advance.
