Hi all, I am have written a very basic squid authenticator module. Code is as follows:
#!/bin/sh PASSWORDFILE="/usr/local/etc/squid/users.txt" TEST="123" while [ ! -z $TEST ] do read AUTH if [ ! -z "`grep -x "$AUTH" $PASSWORDFILE`" ]; then echo "OK" else echo "ERR" fi done It all works fine and authenticates users from a plain text file (/usr/local/etc/squid/users.txt) whose format is: user password user password The only problem is that the authenicator module processes that squid spawns don't get killed when squid is killed. It also seems to keep opening many more authenicator module processes while it runs even though I have limited it toi 5 children in squid.conf. Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance...... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Would you like to receive faxes to your personal email address? You can with mBox.
