Dang, that's it - I knew I couldn't auth with ident on a transparent proxy, but hoped I could use it for logging.

Are you running a transparent proxy or a normal proxy?
ident cannot be used in transparent proxies, as none of the known interception methods allows the application (i.e. Squid) to initiate the ident request with the correct source address.

I'm trying to log userids from users on a linux terminal server on our squid server. I've just compiled a fresh squid-2.5.STABLE1 and made sure I did not use the --disable-ident-lookups flag on configure. However, including the following in my squid.conf does not provide the expected results:
acl ltsp src 10.168.12.235/255.255.255.255 ident_lookup_access allow ltsp ident_lookup_access deny all
I've used a packet sniffer on the squid box and I do not see a request being made on port 113 at all, so it appears that squid is not generating the request.
Looking through google I found the following suggested additional config to try to force ident lookups:
acl test ident REQUIRED http_access deny test !all
This does not seem to help either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
