So, making some progress I think, but seeing unexpected behavior. I changed the " to ' surrounding my DN, and got more output in the squid log. However it's definitely behaving differently from within squid then from cli. Attempting to auth my browser (firefox) pointing to squid I get the following when I enter my sAMAccountName: attempting to authenticate user 'uid=mlanghorst,dc=oa,dc=domain,dc=com' This will obviously fail as AD doesn't use uid, nor is that the correct DN for my account. Now trying this exact string from the command line gives the following: user filter 'sAMAccountName=myuser', searchbase 'dc=oa,dc=domain,dc=com' attempting to authenticate user 'CN=User\, My,OU=Basic,OU=Users,DC=oa,DC=domain,DC=com' OK This is my correct DN. Now I see I can use the -u switch to tell specifically tell it to use sAMAccountName, but I would then need to tell it how to construct the DN which simply won't work. We have multiple peers to OU=Basic, as well as an ou for service accounts. It appears that it's just ignoring the -f flag when called from squid.
