Hi all I have a problem so strange it's almost laughable. I'm trying to set up a site with delay pools, but I only want to forward members of a particular Active Directory group to the delay pool. I have an authenticator that I have used on countless sites, which checks to see whether a given user belongs to an AD group, nested or otherwise. When I put a user in this group and use my acl to prevent that group from say, accessing a website, it blocks them as expected. When I apply that same ACL against the delay pool, however, it doesn't send members into the pool. However, if I alter the ACL to check for membership of ANOTHER group, then they ARE sent into the pool. Confused? Here's my config: ------------- external_acl_type ldap_group ttl=70 %LOGIN /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid/squid_ldap_group.pl #custom authenticator to check for membership of nested AD groups auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid/adauth.pl #custom authenticator to verify a user/pass combination are correct delay_initial_bucket_level 100 delay_pools 1 delay_class 1 2 delay_parameters 1 -1/-1 8000/2048 acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl validusers proxy_auth REQUIRED acl badfiles urlpath_regex -i "/etc/squid/badfiles.txt" acl throttled external ldap_group Internet-Throttled acl inetallow external ldap_group Internet-Allow acl inetdisallow external ldap_group Internet-Disallow delay_access 1 allow throttled delay_access 1 deny all http_access deny throttled badfiles -------------- So if I put a user in the group "Internet-Throttled", they won't be sent into the pool, but will be prohibited from downloading files in the badfiles.txt list. Group membership testing is working for the http_access deny, but not for delay_access But if I alter the definition of the 'throttled' acl so it refers to members of the AD group "Internet-Allow", then all members of that group ARE sent to the delay pool I'm finding it hard to attribute blame anywhere. It seems to be that it can't be the authenticator, the group, or the delay pool syntax as they all work fine under certain circumstances. Any advice is greatly welcomed. Thanks Richard
