RE: [squid-users] Usernames in capitals converted lowercase and denied

Hmm, this mailing list seems to ignore me.
 
auth_param basic casesensitive on
 
as per: http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431
 
fixed the problem for usernames in capitals.
 
However, devising a solution for ncsa_auth to accept user/pass case-insensitively still remains.
 
Anyone with a similiar requirement and/or solution?
