Hi Srinivasan,
I don't see /etc/passwd in :
/usr/lib/squid/
there is no dir /etc in /usr/lib/squid/
Will it be created ?
Thanks

Please use
/usr/bin/htpasswd -c /usr/lib/squid/etc/passwd user-id passwd
for to add the user and passwd to NCSA database.
Please stop/start the squid daemon after added above things.

Subject: [squid-users] NCSA auth
hello,
I want to use NCSA based auth with IP of machines.
I am using now only IP for acl as follows :
acl abc src 192.168.0.1
http_access allow abc
I want to add say username and password also for auth
using NCSA.
I believe I need to add the following line in squid.conf
authenticate_program /usr/local/squid/bin/ncsa_auth
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd
I am not sure exactly where to add the above line.
Futher I need to create the file passwd in
/usr/local/squid/etc/
Howto add username and password to the file passwd?
What should I add to my present acl in squid.conf to add
NCSA auth with username and password ?
Thanks in advance
Varun
