Please add following lines into /etc/squid.conf #------please add following lines after icp_port (some number) auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/ncsa_auth /etc/squid/password auth_param basic children 5 auth_param basic realm Tell me your user name and password auth_param basic credentialsttl 30 minutes ------------------------------------------------------------------- #-Please add following line before any http_access starts ------------------------------------------------------------------ acl authentic proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access allow authentic #------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please use /usr/bin/htpasswd -c /etc/squid/password user-id passwd for to add the user and passwd to NCSA database.
