Depends on whether you are using the Captive Portal installation you mentioned, a forward-proxy or interception proxy. Of those options only the forward-proxy can do HTTP authentication. I'm not familiar enough with RADIUS to know how (if at all) you coudl get data between them. > > Sorry if it sounds stupid, im new on DB. I usually only work on proxy with > ncsa authentication. Operationally there is no difference. NCSA is one of the flat-file database formats I mentioned. Both even use crypt() function in the background for secure password hashing. The only visible difference between basic_db_auth and basic_ncsa_auth is the parameters on the helper line in squid.conf. Here is an example config for the DB auth helper: auth_param basic program /usr/bin/perl /usr/lib/squid/basic_db_auth \ --persist --md5 --salt "pepper" \ --dsn DBI:Oracle:database=users:db.example.com:1234 \ --user proxy --password blah --table accounts \ --usercol UserName --passwdcol Passwd \ --cond Status='ACTIVE' As Yuri pointed the basic_ldap_auth helper is also usable if you prefer LDAP query syntax to SQL.
