I am hosting the squid proxy on Windows 2K12 server. Squid 2.7.STABLE8 Squid Web Proxy version worked well for authentication until recent Windows 10 update killed Sha1. Now I am upgrading to squid proxy version 3.5.x.x to restore authentication.

FYI: upgrading to Squid-3 will not solve that problem by itself. The helpers in both Squid series are performing the same logic, with the same crypto limitations.

The core problem is that NTLM protocol itself is not capable of anything actually considered secure these days. It was declared EOL by MS more then 11 years ago, so loss of NTLM related things in Win10 is hardly a surprise.

To solve your auth problem what you need is actually a migration to Kerberos authentication (Negotiate auth). You might find that slightly easier after the Squid-3 upgrade, but the two are really independent changes.



The below settings are longer available in the 3.5.x.x version since the progams do not exist for the new version:

auth_param ntlm program c:/squid/libexec/mswin_ntlm_auth.exe

external_acl_type win_domain_group %LOGIN c:/squid/libexec/mswin_check_ad_group.exe -G


What are the equivalent setting for v 3.5. Once again I am in windows environment.

The helpers still exist, they just got renamed to follow a structured taxonomy:
