Hi team, I'm trying to set up an authenticating squid proxy with a nice login box rather than the one the browser pops up with a HTTP 407 request... Does anyone know how to do this? The main reasons for this are (1) to make it look nice (2) so that I don't have to tell people to put in DOMAIN\user into the box, (3) put some instructions as to what is going on and (4) to add a limited guest login option. This is where I am so far... - I've got NTLM authentication working - I've got a nice login page in ERR_CACHE_ACCESS_DENIED and ERR_ACCESS_DENIED - I've still got to write the bit to authenticate people, but I'm not too worried about that. Highlights from my squid.conf file looks like this: auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp auth_param ntlm children 45 acl authdUsers proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access deny !authdUsers ### Kicks up a 407 request http_access deny all The second last line is the tricky one - I can see why the line http_access allow authdUsers would trigger a 407 request, but I'd hoped the deny ! option would get around this. Any ideas? I've promised I'll get this going be the end of the week... any help would be really handy. thanks Jim Potter UK
