RE: [squid-users] Authentication

Howzit ...

You have :

acl foo proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow foo

Should it not be :

acl prueba proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow prueba

Anycase ...

DO you have :

auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/ncsa_auth
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm YOUR COMPANY NAME
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours

acl yournetworkname src 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0

http_access allow yournetworkname AuthorizedUsers
http_access deny all

Subject: [squid-users] Authentication

Hello,
 I have problems with the authentication. I've followed the faq's rules:
   1.Acl:

        acl foo proxy_auth REQUIRED
        http_access allow foo

   2. External authenticator program.

        % cd helpers/basic_auth/NCSA
        % make
        % make install

   3. Password file

   4. Configure the external authenticator in squid.conf. For ncsa_auth
you need to give the pathname to the executable and the password file as
an argument. For example:

        auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/ncsa_auth
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd

But I'm not able to start Squid:
/var/messages:
Bungled squid.conf line 444: acl prueba proxy_auth REQUIRED

Thanks!
