Hi, I'm currently using SQUID 2.5 STABLE3 offering the NTLM and the basic authentications schemes, i.e. users using Internet Explorer - 5.5 and 6 - are authenticated transparently. When a java applet is to be loaded from a website an authentication dialogbox appears and the credentials have to be entered explicitely.
When I understand it correctly the reason for this is that squid authenticates a socket (ip address and source port). When the Java Virtual Machine is not part of the browser but a different process the browser's authentication is not valid for the JVM. Is there a way to avoid the JVM authentication box ? Regards Wolfgang
