Hello Sebastian,

Thanks for the help, i have allowed the user to rwx on cachemgr but
did not have any successes.

rwx?  It is not a file permission.

Manager access is set via "cachemgr_passwd reconfigure blah" in squid.conf where blah is the password needed to perform the reconfigure action. When Squid receives and HTTP request with the right URL and password it reconfigures itself.

The cachemgr.cgi web interface is just a way to send the HTTP request to Squid.

If command line access is easier for them the squidclient tool can perform the manager requests.
