[squid-users] IIS Authentication Error

Hi All,

I have a client who is trying to connect to an IIS website that requires
user authentication. When they bypass the Squid-2.5STABLE2 proxy it works
fine and they are prompted to enter their login details.

When they go through the proxy, which is using the LDAP helper to
authenticate them via Novell, they get the following error returned from the
destination webserver:

==================
You are not authorized to view this page

You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the
credentials
that you supplied because your Web Browser is sending a WWW-Authenticate
header field that the web server is not configured to accept.

...

HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to server
configuration.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

==================

I tried adding an acl destination for the site and setting
no_cache deny thesite
http_access allow thesite

to stop the page being cached and allow access to it before Squid requires
Authentication but that didn't resolve it.

Does anyone have any ideas? IIRC isn't there an issue that IIS NTLM
authentication cannot be proxied? Could that be the case here?

Thanks in advance

Regards
Jay Turner
