[squid-users] Bowsers do not request login with proxy_auth

I had squid running fine on FC4 using pam_auth. I upgraded the server
to FC9 a few days ago and unfortunately I can not get it to work any
more. FC9 has squid 3.0 STABLE2. The relevant portions of squid.conf
are:

auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/pam_auth
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm aradhana
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hour
auth_param basic casesensitive off

....

acl logueados proxy_auth REQUIRED

.....

http_access allow logueados
http_access allow localhost
http_access deny all

There is a squid file in /etc/pam.d with a line for account and a line for auth.

I also tried this using ncsa_auth. The problem is that the browser does
not ask for a login but goes directly to the 407 error page saying that
access to the cache is denied. This happens with IE and Firefox. These
same browsers were working a few days ago with the older version. I
also tested pam_auth manually on the command line and it works.

Any clues about what needs to be done in version3?
