I didn't know that.
Initially I tested on iPhone using wi-fi connection and as I said earlier there are wi-fi proxy settings on iPhone so user should type them only once and then each browser and app works without asking login/pass.
> I still do not understand the purpose for which authentication is required?
This proxy will be available from anywhere, but I need to prevent usage of this proxy by anyone, except my clients. This is the main purpose.
I had a plan to give login and password to each client, but as I said earlier this is not possible because of user experience reasons.
Also I can't rely on MAC, IP or other indirect attributes.

So I try to find other ways to check if user who is connecting to proxy is my client or not.
Right now I see only two ways here:
1) authentication by proxy server using certificates
1) authentication by proxy server using certificates
2) authentication by some other server which accept certificates and then redirecting connections to proxy.
As I said I'm novice and didn't use proxy earlier. Maybe you know better solution._______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
