You are confusing topics slightly I think.. ident is getting the users login name via the ident protocol, not authentication (login+password). for authentication you need to use the proxy_auth acl type, and configure the appropriate authentication helper allowing Squid to verify the login+password. See the Squid FAQ chapter on authentication. Regards Henrik
