The way the thing is menat to work is you install something like ncsa_auth then create a password file similar to a .htpasswd file and squid will call ncsa_auth to authenticate the proxy user. That sucks as everytime I add a new user I have to add them to the ncsa_auth password file as well. What I was hoping to find was a small program or perl script that could take as input a username and password and it would call the appropriate FreeBSD library routine to check the password against the system password and return OK or or simialr which I would massage to suit the reponse squid expected. Any suggestions? - Ernie. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
