Hi,
We have squid2.5-STABLE7 running on SuSE Linux, squid is working very
well except that it has problem showing up a particular website
http://secure.govdex.gov.au/ using IIS login page with errors
appeared, something like this;

You are not authorized to view this page
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the
credentials that you supplied because your Web browser is sending a
WWW-Authenticate header field that the Web server is not configured to
accept.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please try the following:

Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be able to
view this directory or page.
Click the Refresh button to try again with different credentials.
HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to server
configuration.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Without squid the IIS login page shown up successfully for user login
authentication.
I have browsed squid users support sites and understand that this
particular site may be using "Microsoft Integrated Login" (NTLM) which
is
not a HTTP compliant authentication protocol and is not supported by
squid.
Can someone please provide clue to a workaround for this. Our
organization does not allow users bypass squid to access internet sites,
bypass is only for Admnistrators.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Daniel Lim
