Hi
We have 5 squid workers, we need to handle around 8k concurrent
users.
Based on this, what's the auth_param values that you recommend
for children, idle and startup?
How to know if the helper supports concurrent requests?
winbindd: Exceeding 500 client
connections, no idle connection found
I will increase this value to check if help to settle the issue

I know virtually nothing about WINDBIND and the authentication
helper you are using, but configuring Squid to have 500 helper
processes is usually a mistake, even with a single Squid worker.
YMMV, but I would try to use a lot fewer helpers (e.g., 10) and
increase that number only if such an increase actually improves
things.
If possible, use a helper that supports concurrent requests.
If your Squid is not competing for resources with other
applications on the server, then I also recommend keeping a
_constant_ number of helper processes (instead of asking Squid to
start many new helper processes at the worse possible time -- when
the load on Squid increases). To do that, make startup and idle
parameters the same as the maximum number of children.
HTH,
Alex.
P.S. The credit for highlighting the correlation between winbindd
errors and "auth_param ntlm children 500" goes to Andrey K.
