Hi Everyone, I've done quite a bit of reading about squid authentication and the accelerated proxy features but I still have one question in regards to a setup I am currently configuring. I think it's currently impossible todo what I want but I thought it best to check with the experts first.
I have a Squid server setup as an accelerated server for a single host (at the moment). This squid server is the latest build of version 3.0 and is configured todo Proxy auth via RADIUS (as this feature was only added in the latest builds). All works fine - when a client access this machine it gets asked for the radius logon, is authenticated and then the request to the web server is processed. The problem occurs when the application on the web server wants Basic authentication also. It looks like the 401 code for authorisation makes it back to the user okay with the different Realm but when the user sends their details back Squid picks them up thinking they belong to it's authentication ....... it doesn't just pass them through to the web server. Hence since the second authentication is a different user/pass to the first Squid fails the authentication and denies the access. Is this a known issue ? Is there anyway around this or just can't you use Accel+Auth+ClientAuth currently. Thanks for all your help. Mark Wallis [EMAIL PROTECTED]
