Hi

I'm trying to configure Squid 2.4.STABLE7, running on SuSE, to ldap
authenticate against eDirectory.

I have a working ldap query, which works just fine at the command line
using squid_ldap_auth:

./squid_ldap_auth  -b "ou=xxxx,o=yyyy,c=zz"  -u  cn  -s  sub  -D
"cn=wwww,ou=xxxx,o=yyyy,c=zz,"  -w  <password>  -f  "<filter here>"
ldap_ip_address

This successfully connects to the server and validates or errors user name
and password combinations correctly.

In squid.conf, I have:

acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
acl password proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow password
http_access deny all

PROBLEM: when I try to open a page and enter the user name and password at
the prompt, I just get the following error in cache.log:

squid_ldap_auth: WARNING, could not bind to binddn 'Invalid DN syntax'
squid_ldap_auth: WARNING, could not bind to binddn 'Invalid DN syntax'

and the prompt re-appears. But this DN is fine when run from the command
line.

I did notice that I get a TCP_DENIED message in access.log AS the prompt
flashes up (i.e. BEFORE I've actually entered my details (not sure whether
this is relevant or not)), as well as after.

Any help appreciated.

Regards

Jeff
