RE: [squid-users] ident_lookup?

I'm not so much using to allow/deny access - I just need to log the
username. Will just creating the ACL without actually using it accomplish
this?

Hi Ian,

use the ACL type ident, e.g.

acl <name> ident <userlist>
http_access allow <name>
http_access deny all

You only need an ident daemon (see RFC 1413) running on the client. For
Linux
you could use the pidentd (see http://sf.www.lysator.liu.se/~pen/pidentd/),
for M$ systems try the Turtle Identd (ask your favourite search engine where
to find it).

Have a lot of fun,

Peter
