We're running Squid V2.5Stable10 on a Solaris 8 platform and are
attempting to get the NTLM authentication working along with basic
authentication for non-IE browsers.
So far, IE users that are logged into the domain authenticate without
an authentication prompt (good). Non IE users or users of other web
clients are prompted for authentication, which is expected, except
now they must type in the domain/username and password (i.e.
ap1/myname) instead of just their username. That's a bigger change in
behaviour than we would like. Is there a way to make this work or is
this normal behaviour?
I think you need to set "winbind use default domain = yes" in your
smb.conf
Okay, I've changed my configuration following the instructions in the
Squid FAQ - http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-23.html - How do I use
the Winbind authenticators
Things are working better. Non IE browsers not logged into the domain
prompt for password (good). IE and Firefox, when logged into the domain,
do not ask for a password (also good).
A problem remains with IE when I'm not logged into the domain. It prompts
for usernmame and password as it should, but it also insists that I enter
a domain (ap1\diggins) before it will authentication. All non-IE browsers
don't require this. Is there anyway to make IE behave better?
