[squid-users] Problem with NTLM

Hi,

I am having a problem with Squid and NTLM authentication, on Fedora FC3
with the latest (release) squid and samba installed.

Everything seems to be setup correctly; whenever I verify the connection
between the linux box and the windows domain with kinit, wbinfo, and all
other sorts of utilities outside squid, everything is ok.

When I run the ntlm_auth binary (the samba one), I can correctly
authenticate users and passwords.

The privileged pipe is accessible by squid; I even assigned a regular
shell to the squid user and tried to execute the above commands under
the squid account, and everything works.

BUT, when I tell squid to authenticate users using ntlm_auth, they are
denied access. I see 30 ntlm and 5 basic daemons starting; in the
cache.log I can see the NTLM authorization headers coming from the
browsers.

I kept the acl as simple as possible, with the simple requirement that
users must be 'proxy_auth REQUIRED'.

However, users are denied access.

I tried almost every suggestion found in mailing lists and online user
groups, but while all tests run ok, squid does not authenticate users.

I am lost. What can I do?
