Re: [squid-users] The NCSA_AUTH

Everything is ok on execution permisions and so,
maybe I put a wrong directive n the squid.conf

i put :

authenticate_program /usr/local/squid/bin/ncsa_auth
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd

is this right or must I do it in another way ??
My squid version is : 2.4.STABLE2
