Hi everybody! I wanna run a squid proxy server on Red Hat 9.0 in an Win NT 4 environment. At the moment squid is running on NT but it sucks and crashes all the time. I set squid up on linux and tried the msnt authenticate. It works but I don't want a prompt if you start the internet explorer. So I tried to set up squid with winbind.
I tried all the configurations and the hints in all threads I found. http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-23.html wbinfo -t responds SUCCESS wbinfo -g shows me all the NT groups wbinfo -u shows me all the NT users wbinfo -a mydomain\myuser%mypasswd SUCCESS but the following command responds always the same error: /usr/local/squid/libexec/wb_auth -d /wb_auth[14615](wb_basic_auth.c:168): basich winbindd auth helper build Oct 21 2003, 09:47:15 starting up... mydomainmyuser mypasswd /wb_auth[14615](wb_basic_auth.c:129): Got 'mydomainmyuser mypasswd' from squid (length: 21). /wb_auth[14615](wb_basic_auth.c:55): winbindd result -1 /wb_auth[14615](wb_basic_auth.c:60): sending 'ERR' to squid ERR I don't know where my problem is hidden. I use Samba 3.0.0 and Squid-2.5-STABLE3. my squid.conf: auth_param ntlm program /usr/local/squid/libexec/wb_ntlmauth auth_param ntlm children 5 auth_param ntlm max_challenge_reuses 0 auth_param ntlm max_challenge_lifetime 2 minutes auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/libexec/wb_auth auth_param basic children 5 auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours I also use free and denied domains which I can access. But if I want to open google.com or any other page, the prompt shows up. And if I type in my username and password, I can't logon to the Internet. Some users in our company don't have access to the internet. How can I handle it, that the users with internet access can use the internet without typing in their username and password again? I hope you can help me out. I am working on this for a few weeks now. But I can't get the problem solved. Thanks a lot for helping me!!
