No, it is possible to use digest authentication to avoid cleartext passwords. The squid wiki link Henrik sent out is a good start, but it leaves out one critical piece: how to encode the passwords! In either LDAP or a flat-file, I found only one site online with instructions, and they were 100% wrong.I eventually succeeded after much head-bashing by using the "htdigest" command which comes with Apache. I haven't yet figured out what it's doing during it's encoding, but it works.
Sounds pretty important ;-) Feel up to writing the missing part for our wiki? Amos -- Please use Squid 2.7.STABLE1 or 3.0.STABLE6
