Get the source code for Squid from www.squid-cache.org
Like what I have got is squid-2.3.STABLE2-src.tar.gz
Explode this and the directiory structure created would contain a directory
named auth_modules. This has the different authentication progs with their
individual makefiles. do a "make" for whichever program you wanna use. You
should have the executable ready then. Mention it in your squid.conf like...
authenticate_program /etc/squid/pam_auth or something like this.

You would have to make a new password file using htpasswd and then mention
this to squid.
authenticate_program /etc/squid/ncsa_auth /etc/squid/passwd
This would be IF you use the latest version of squid and NOT the older one
that you have got.

Yeah! what about this? I don think you need to change this until the
authentication freq. is very large.
