        The problem is solved!

        Netscape proxy use digest auth, I have just compile digest auth on
squid too, then the following line in conf:

        auth_param digest program /usr/local/squid/libexec/digest_auth_pw
/usr/local/squid/etc/digpass

        then added option to cache_peer login=PASS

        regards,
        Zoltan
