auth_param basic program /usr/local/squid/bin/ncsa_auth
/usr/local/squid/etc/squidpasswd
password is stored inside squidpasswd, a file that is created using apache
htpasswd program
add the line somewhere below the default line "auth_param basic
credentialsttl 2 hours" will do

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
