[squid-users] Authentication on server side instead of client? is that possible?

2010-01-06 Thread Roland Roland

Hello,

hope this is possible to implement..

i've read squid.conf.default over and over again with no luck or simply 
no  understanding of what i'm looking for..


is there a way that squid can authenticate with a certain website 
instead of having every client on the network doing so ?


in other words, i have a site that 20 users use daily though having a 
shared password is not favorable..
so is there a way to do so on the server  and then all clients gets 
served an allready authenticated session to that site?

is that feasible?

yes. See http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/cache_peer/ (in
particular the login= option to cache_peer)
