Guys,
I think I have to resign myself to ask the question. After a couple
of
days on the internet and buying the a book on SQUID i still can't
make
the auth_param work. Accept my apologies if this is really a dum
question
I am trying to use proxy_auth. I am using SQUID Proxy 3.1.12 on a
slackware box running 13.37.
SQUID is running like a charme but I can't get NCSA to work. SQUID
was
compiled with NCSA. Here is my config
acl auth_users proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow auth_users
*************************************************************
auth_param basic program /etc/squid/ncsa_auth /etc/squid/passwd - For
this line, I did try to move the ncsa from /usr/libexec to /etc/squid
but I did try PATH /usr/libexec/ncsa_auth as well which yielded the
same error
***********************************************************
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server
auth_param basic credentialsttl 4 hours
auth_param basic casesensitive off
Step 3 : run the command-line
every single time I get the error:
Can't use proxy auth because no authentication schemes are fully
configured.
The auth_param lines load and register the authentication libraries.
That must be done above the first ACL line which uses auth.
Also, for NCSA please use 3.1.15 or later and make sure to use MD5
storage ("htpasswd -m") for the passwords.
