Based on the docu I should setup something similar to
external_acl_type MyAclHelper %SRC %LOGIN %{Host}
/usr/local/squid/libexec/myaclhelper
However I only want to authenticate based on src IP so I want to use :
external_acl_type MyAclHelper %SRC
/usr/local/squid/libexec/myaclhelper
I am not getting any errors right now, but I am getting access denied,
although the script echoes OK, and it works using stdin
