Hi All, Does anyone have suggestion to fix the error permanently? (I restarted squid which has fixed it right now - but this is not a permanently fix)
This morning we had a problem with our squid proxy, it would not accept logons from users, the error in the cache.log was: externalAclLookup: 'memberof' queue overload (ch=0x7f7d873b8358) The above message would repeat about 10 times, then eventually is would seem to authenticate (but still continue to prompt users for a logon – and should not be prompting at all as the users are using Kerberos): 2013/08/26 07:13:48| externalAclLookup: 'memberof' queue overload (ch=0x7f7d873b8358) 2013/08/26 07:13:48| squid_kerb_auth: DEBUG: ←lots of code→== u...@domain.com.au 2013/08/26 07:13:48| squid_kerb_auth: INFO: User u...@domain.com.au authenticated We only have about 10 users on squid right now and was about to rollout further, I had previously increased the negotiate children to 50 to handle our future 500 users, we are running squid 3.1.10 on centos 6.4, below is the squid.conf: ### /etc/squid/squid.conf Configuration File #### ### cache manager cache_mgr helpd...@domain.com.au ### negotiate kerberos and ntlm authentication auth_param negotiate program /usr/local/bin/negotiate_wrapper -d --ntlm /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --diagnostics --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp --domain=DOMAIN --kerberos /usr/lib64/squid/squid_kerb_auth -i -d -s HTTP/proxy.domain.com.au auth_param negotiate children 50 auth_param negotiate keep_alive off ### pure ntlm authentication auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --diagnostics --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp --domain=DOMAIN auth_param ntlm children 200 auth_param ntlm keep_alive off ### provide basic authentication via ldap for clients not authenticated via kerberos/ntlm auth_param basic program /usr/lib64/squid/squid_ldap_auth -R -b "dc=domain,dc=com,dc=au" -D sq...@domain.com.au -W /etc/squid/ldappass.txt -f sAMAccountName=%s -h dc1.domain.com.au auth_param basic children 100 auth_param basic realm Internet Proxy auth_param basic credentialsttl 1 minute ### ldap authorisation external_acl_type memberof %LOGIN /usr/lib64/squid/squid_ldap_group -R -K -b "dc=domain,dc=com,dc=au" -D sq...@domain.com.au -W /etc/squid/ldappass.txt -f "(&(objectclass=person)(sAMAccountName=%v)(memberof=cn=%g, ou=Internet,ou=Domain Groups,ou=Domain,dc=domain,dc=com,dc=au))" -h dc1.domain.com.au ### Squid Cache Manager cachemgr_passwd none info cache_dir aufs /var/spool/squid 30000 16 256 minimum_object_size 2 KB maximum_object_size 10 MB cache_swap_low 95 cache_swap_high 97 # aclname acltype typename activedirectorygroup acl SSL method CONNECT acl allowedsites dstdomain "/etc/squid/allowedsites.txt" acl auth proxy_auth REQUIRED acl BlockedAccess external memberof "/etc/squid/blocked_access.txt" acl RestrictedAccess external memberof "/etc/squid/restricted_access.txt" acl StandardAccess external memberof "/etc/squid/standard_access.txt" acl ExceptionAccess external memberof "/etc/squid/exception_access.txt" acl FullAccess external memberof "/etc/squid/full_access.txt" acl AnonymousAccess external memberof "/etc/squid/anonymous_access.txt" acl blockedsites dstdomain "/etc/squid/blockedsites.txt" acl exceptedsites dstdomain "/etc/squid/exceptedsites.txt" acl prioritysites dstdomain "/etc/squid/prioritysites.txt" ### squid defaults acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32 ::1 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 0.0.0.0/32 ::1 acl SSL_ports port 443 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl CONNECT method CONNECT acl cacheadmin src 192.168.11.221 192.168.8.175 ### http_access rules http_access allow manager localhost http_access allow manager cacheadmin http_access deny manager http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow localhost http_access allow prioritysites http_access deny BlockedAccess all http_access allow allowedsites http_access deny RestrictedAccess all http_access allow AnonymousAccess auth http_access allow FullAccess auth http_access allow ExceptionAccess exceptedsites auth http_access deny blockedsites http_access allow StandardAccess auth http_access allow auth http_access deny !auth http_access deny all ### logging access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid ### Set memory manually, to allow it to use more of the system cache_mem 1024 MB ### squid defaults http_port 8080 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? coredump_dir /var/spool/squid refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0 0% 0 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 Thanks, Glenn
