Hello Henrik,
Thank you for your assistance. './configure --enable-auth=digest --enable-digest-auth-helpers' solved the problem like you suggested. So I now have squid 2.5 Stable 7 working with an unencrypted password file using the digest scheme.
name:password.
Going forward one last step, you had suggested that the digest authentication helper shipped with version 3 used encrypted passwords created by 'htdigest'.
I compiled version 3 like before and copied the 'digest_pw_auth' program into the ../libexec directory.
I included the realm statement in squid.conf to read 'Test'
I created the password file using
htdigest .../passwd Test userName
I am unable to get it to authenticate using the encrypted file. If I change the password file to store
name:password
like before, it works fine.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks once again for your assistance
Warm regards
Glenn Baptista

Hello Henrik,
Thanks very much for your help. I was not successful in being able to do digest authentication. Following are details of what I did. Can you please help me overcome the problem which is reported by squid as a 'Parsing error'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sbin]# ./squid
2004/12/14 11:10:34| Parsing Config File: Unknown authentication scheme 'digest'.
Your Squid is not built with support for the digest authentication scheme.
Rebuild Squid with the digest authentication scheme enabled (./configure --help)
auth scheme = authentication types supported by Squid
auth helpers = backend helpers, specific to each scheme
Regards Henrik
