RE: [squid-users] Logging username at parent cache using ntlm_aut h

Hi Robert

Sorry to be so dense, where can I find a sample basic_auth helper script?

Many thanks
Andrew.

You'll need to
1) configure basic authentication
2) write yourself a basic_auth helper (see the sample - it's easy) that
knows the secretkey and can respond with appropriate credentials to each
squid user query. (i.e. when squid asks for user FOO, it responds with
secretkey).

Cheers,
Rob
