Hi list.
We are going to work with an old squid (I mean old because this squid
was installed and administered by another person), It works with LDAP.
I don't have any experience working with LDAP authentication.
I was wondering if you can give me some advices for troubleshooting, any
advice will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Alfonso.
Hello Alfonso
Perhaps you found on the net a little documentation about it,
i.e. : http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Authenticate/Ldap
But I recommend you to start learning how to use ldapsearch command
by using a simple "man ldapsearch", and also to read about the ldap
service.
( ldapsearch command is provided by openldap-client package in a few
GNU/Linux distributions)
That could help you a lot, because you could retrieve information about
the user records on the ldap database, once you know which attributes has
a user schema, then you could easily guest what squid is asking about on
squid auth helper.
Happy ldap searching
Regards
