Re: [squid-users] authenticate squid by novell eDirectory

Thanks for the help

I configured the squid server as belows
authenticate_programme /usr/lib/squid/squid_ldap_auth 192.168.6.10

acl password proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow password

192.168.6.10 is the ip of my novell eDirectory server
any options such as -b/-dc didnt work

./squid_ldap_auth 192.168.6.10
also gave errors

squid version is squid 2.4 S5
