The path is /usr/lib/squid and i am able to use the below options in squid.conf. In the sense that, squid starts without any errors!!
#auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/smb_auth /usr/local/squid/etc/passwd #acl sambaUsers proxy_auth REQUIRED #acl deadHours time 18:00-20:00 #http_access deny !deadHours sambaUsers 1) I didnt find the passwd file under /usr/local/squid/etc/ so i have copied /etc/passwd file to this location just to check if it works. 2) After enabling these options, squid is not letting any connections irrelevant of the time mentioned in the ACL. I am wondering what i am missing. 3) the wbinfo is still not working, the error, is no logon servers available. I have reached somewhere... :) On Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 5:45 PM, Amos Jeffries <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Avinash Rao wrote: >> >> Dear Amos, >> >> I have managed to recompile squid with the basic auth helpers and >> proxy_auth without any errors. >> >> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# /etc/init.d/squid reload >> * Reloading Squid configuration files >> FATAL: auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/bin/proxy_auth: (2) >> No such file or directory >> Squid Cache (Version 2.6.STABLE18): Terminated abnormally. >> CPU Usage: 0.039 seconds = 0.028 user + 0.011 sys >> Maximum Resident Size: 0 KB >> Page faults with physical i/o: 0 >> Aborted >> >> >> Here's what is happening.
