I've google and the FAQ and can't seem to find a definate answer to this problem. I have a linux box running Squid Cache: Version 2.4.STABLE7 and these are the relavent config options
authenticate_program /usr/lib/squid/ncsa_auth /etc/squidpass authenticate_children 5 authenticate_ttl 1 hour acl pass proxy_auth REQUIRED acl daytime time 08:00-23:00 http_access allow daytime http_access allow pass http_access allow localhost http_access deny all What I'm trying to do is allow access to the proxy during the times 08:00 and 23:00 and then any other times require an authenticated user. Now when I try connecting to a website outside the hours listed above I get prompted for a password. When I enter one I then get a "Page not found error". I've tried this using IE5.5 and IE6sp1 (read the faq and applied the patch from MS) and still get the same problem. Even if I refresh 10 times it makes no difference. These are the errros I get in my access.log 1058621338.363 3 172.24.200.10 TCP_DENIED/407 1311 GET http://www.google.com/ jennifer NONE/- - 1058621347.849 3 172.24.200.10 TCP_DENIED/407 1308 GET http://www.yahoo.com/ jennifer NONE/- - Now I have checked the user squid has access to both the password file and the ncsa_auth program by trying it from the command line which works fine so I'm lost. Any ideas anyone? Thanks Gareth
