RE: [squid-users] Getting SARG to show usernames instead of IP

Chinner.

This information is not part of the squid configuration but I couldn't let you jump to Cisco wccp without sharing my experience.

That feature is not working right with any asa5500 IOS version, it has a lot of bugs. Be very careful if you set it up on production environment.

Regards.

Alfonso.

Right from the squid.conf file

 WARNING: authentication can't be used in a transparently intercepting
# proxy as the client then thinks it is talking to an origin server and
# not the proxy. This is a limitation of bending the TCP/IP protocol to
# transparently intercepting port 80, not a limitation in Squid.
# Ports flagged 'transparent', 'intercept', or 'tproxy' have
# authentication disabled.

Guess I can't use authentication with a transparent setup. Will have to investigate intercept proxy. I'm trying to use Cisco WCCP via our Cisco 5505's so if I go intercept proxy and the Squid server goes offline, Internet traffic can still go through.
