Hi,
What is the behaviour/mechanism of authentication if using squid proxy for both
as forward proxy and reverse proxy.
I have successfully setup it for a forward proxy using the Helper files by
Markus and the following tutorial;
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Authenticate/Kerberos
Now comming in my mind two scenarios. One is that squid is being used for
authentication and the second one is that web server is providing the
authenticaiton/authorization and squid is just forwarding the requests to the
web server? Please guide/suggest/comment about it.
However what my pan is that I want that web server(outlookwebacess) should be
the one taking care of auhentication part and squid should simply have given
the role of forwarder. However i am not sure which approach to adopt and what
are any special configurations that are required? what are the implications of
each approach?
regards,
Bilal
