Good day! I am using authentication proxy server. Everyone need to have an account to be able to use the internet. I am using htpasswd /etc/squid.passwd user to add an acount and the account will be save to passwd file that i created. I saw the Graphical Internet of Linux to adduser inside the windows using Users and Groups system under the System- Administration - Users and Groups. Is it possible for me to use that system to adduser instead of using .htpasswd command? If yes what should I change in this line? auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/ncsa_auth /etc/squid/passwd auth_param basic children 5 auth_param basic realm Ask your System Administrator: auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic casesensitive on #MASAMA SA KATAWAN 111 acl ncsa_users proxy_auth REQUIRED
Your "auth_param basic program" line needs to change from NCSA authentication to Unix authentication.
Documentatin for the authentication helper is here: http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.2/manuals/basic_getpwnam_auth.html NP: The binary packaged with older squid versions is just "getpwname_auth". Amos
