Thanks, Henrik 
I want to make my Squid sever an auth 
server that all the other servers (www, ftp) 
can do auth tasks through my Squid server. So I 
want to use system users. (I do not know how to 
use none system users to share username and password 
safely.) My purpose is simply to maintain a database 
which contains username and password and which can be 
shared with other servers. 
Is PAM mode suitable for my purpose? 
Do you have some other suggestions? 
Cheers, 
Erik
