[squid-users] Problems with Squid and squid_ldapauth

Please can someone help me with my problem with SQUID 2.5.STABLE12 and using
squid_ldapauth as authenticator.

The configuration-file for squid is really simple and I've got from one
an old system thats running under SQUID 2.5.STABLE1.

The system was installed completely from SuSE Linux 10.1 (over YAST).
When I try to start squid (over 'rcsquid start') the following messages
I've got in my log:

What I've done yet:

1. the file squid_authldap is owned by user squid and group root. the filemode is 100750.
2. I've tryed to start squid_authldap as user squid --> success
3. I've started squid_authldap with -v -l to see the results --> all is Ok.
4. I've tested the program with data's --> works fine.
5. Used squid_ldap_auth instead of squid_lapdauth --> same result.
5. I've looked at squid homepage (faq, wiki, doc) and in the internet (with google), if somebody else got this problem --> found nobody

What can I do else? Please help me.
