Re: [SQU] ncsa_auth problem (fwd)

Hi Al,

Thanks for solving my problem regd. ncsa_auth. Now I am trying to use
authenication together with transparent proxy. Somewhere in the list I've
read that it is not practical to have two working together and sure enough
it gives
"aclMatchAcl: prxoy_auth hosts not applicable on accelerated
requests."

Is there any way so that authentication and transparent proxy work
together?
