[squid-users] authenticating users using squid

Hi,
These are the steps I did

1. Installed squid-2.3.STABLE4.
2. cd squid-2.3.STABLE4/auth_modules/PAM/
        a.make
        b. make install
Now, this will install pam_auth inside /usr/local/squid/bin/
The ownership of pam_auth is root and mode, we tried even with 777.
         Chmod s pam_auth

3.then in squid.conf
a.authenticate_program /usr/local/squid/bin/pam_auth /etc/shadow
             acl lan proxy_auth REQUIRED
  acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
  http_access allow lan
  http_access deny all

When I configured the squid with this for authentication, it asks for
user name and password. But as I provide username and password, I am
not authenticated. The error message I get in log is TCP denied/
Error 407. Pls help.
