Hi Everyone

I am encountering an issue with this module which I don't understand.

Stage 1

<snip working manual>

So I add the following to my squid.conf file

external_acl_type ldap_group %LOGIN /usr/lib64/squid/squid_ldap_group -d -b
"ou=People,dc=cms,dc=waikato,dc=ac,dc=nz" -f

'(&(uid=%u)(memberof=cn=%g,ou=groups,ou=people,dc=cms,dc=waikato,dc=ac,dc=nz))'
localhost

acl mysql external ldap_group mysql


And edit the access rule to become
http_access allow ldapauth mysql

Squid parse and loads the configuration. If I attempt to authenticate as the valid user clintd, but with an incorrect password I am prompted to re-enter the password. If I supply valid auth information for the user clintd. I get a page saying squid is denying my request. Why is this ?? I could understand if Im passing an invalid command line to squid_ldap_group
but testing it manually seems to work correctly.

As this is a non-production squid configuration at present I have removed all other acls and etc that may have been interfering but still see the same behavior. Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong or suggestions as
to how I trouble shoot this further.


I see you still have the -d option set in squid.conf. So cache.log should show the same traces as the manual test did. Is this showing anything?

The most common reason for this type of behaviour is user account permissions (squid's versus the manual testers).

PS. I'm on your campus and have an hour free from 3.30pm if you want me to drop by today and help dredge the logs.
