Hi Dan,
Excellent! It is great to know that you are using Squid with Freeradius,
that's exactly what I want to do too. I want Squid to authenticate the http
requests using Freeradius and I also want Squid to perform transparent
proxying so that users from another network do not have to change their
network settings like proxy-server etc.

We're using squid with freeradius as the authentication "engine". As
far as I know, you can't have a transparent + authenticating proxy. If
it's authenticating, then it has to be non-transparent.
It's actually very easy. You just need to set up the Squid ACL's right
(so that it requires auth). Then you set Squid's external
authentication helper. We're using a simple (40 lines) PERL script
which does the authentication. It uses a PERL radius module. I'm not
even sure where I got the script. I think I got it off of Squid's
site. If you can't find it, let me know, and I can e-mail it to you.
The system works great for us.

anyone
has done it and would appreciate it if you could provide
details(configuration
files) of how to setup Squid and Freeradius to do just that.
Thanks.
