RE: [squid-users] bypass msauth on cache peer parent

Hi,

I am not clear of the settings given below.

Supposing I have an msnt authentication on Proxy A (parent) that MUST be
there.

And I need another msnt authentication on Proxy B (child) that can only
direct all requests to Proxy A.

My Proxy A setting:

auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/msnt_auth
..
acl pwd proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow pwd

My proxy B setting:

auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/msnt_auth
..
cache_peer w.x.y.z parent 8080 0 no-query default
..
acl pwd proxy_auth REQUIRED
never_direct deny pwd
never_direct allow all

w.x.y.z is the IP address of Proxy B. And I do a http_access allow all,
which allow all the IP addresses in the Private network to connect to Proxy
B.

The authentication pop-up is still not working in Proxy B.

Any input will be welcome.

Rgds,
Tan

Suppose a group of users to access internet directly - direct-user
On proxy B.
set this setting:

<snip>
acl direct_user proxy_auth usernames
never_direct deny direct_user
