Re: [squid-users] SquidNT 2.6_12 cache_effective_user --- not working

Hi Guido,

I use the version provided on your website. I think this is not a
Cygwin, at least I didn't found
the cygwin.dll file.

I tried already to alter the logon account for the squid service and
set this in the same way in
squid.conf and in the ACLs of the folders but without success.

Here is the cache.log:
