proxy (basic) authorization works well for the moment - so far so good...
i had a look at one of the commercial
products recently and they do some kind of single sign-on for their proxy 
service
- the user will logon for the first
time with username/password
- a flash cookie (LSO - local stored object) will be set in the users broswer 
with no
expiration time
- further authorizations (after browser was closed / machine restarted) will be 
granted based on this
flash cookie

i am in no way a squid/auth/flash guru...
has anyone tried a similar approach on squid?

BlueCoat? (they seems to like this style of login).

it seems that
flash can be used to set various headers in the browser (if flash plugin 
installed...)
so lets say the authentication
succeeds and flash will set the 'proxy-auth' header
...will this header then be used in all subsequent browser
requests?

Interesting question. Try it?


a bit flash centric i know - pardon me ;D
/pat

Not at all. We dearly need somebody with the will to try and see good proxy-auth methods documented for Flash, Java libraries, and quite a few other applications as well.
