Thanks for the tip, but I can't seem to make it work. I know that the id and password are correct because I use them from another system (radius) to authenticate via ldap. Here is what I am getting:
proxy2:echo "ctdlaptop f0ulb3ast" | /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid_ldap_auth -b "ou=academics,o=dbu" -D "cn=LDAPUser,ou=users,o=dbu" -w "n0neshall" -h 10.5.10.215 /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid_ldap_auth: line 1: ctdlaptop: command not found I'm confused! rick...

When testing squid_ldap_auth or squid_ldap_group from the unix (Linux) shell, you must pipe the username and password information into the program. This is what Squid itself does. This stumped me for a bit early on. echo "<username> <password>" | squid_ldap_auth -options... Otherwise, when testing all you will get is "ERR".
