Hello all,

I have written an external auth helper which returns "OK
user=<external username>" in case of a positive authentication result.
I would think that I could use this "external username" - which in
case of LDAP authentication would be the user's DN - in other
external_acl_type acls as the %EXT_USER format. I've now learnt that
I've misunderstood this but I am still wondering if something like
this can be done?

Where did you get that learning?

The code I can see does as you expected. The catch is that the ACL generating user= MUST be tested and produce it's results before any ACL which depend on those results.

In squid.conf access controls order is very important.
