[squid-users] Fwd: Multiple Authentication Prompts

Hi all,
  I am having an intermittent issue with squid prompting multiple
times for authentication especially which using the gmail web
interface. If I am away from the computer for any length of time, the
prompts back up so deep that I have to kill the browser process to
recover. It appears to be an issue with the ntlm type authentication
because if I cancel out of the ntlm prompt and let squid roll into
basic the prompts quit. However, both ntlm and basic use the ntlm_auth
helper. ie.

auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp

and

auth_param basic program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-basic

Here is some other info:

 Browser: Firefox 1.5.0.10
Squid: 2.6.STABLE9

Any thoughts? Or is this yet another ntlm foible?

Thanks,
Chris
