[squid-users] Squid parent proxy authentication

Hi!

I'm trying to set up Squid to tunnel requests through a parent proxy
that requires authentication. I am aware that an entry to the squid
configuration file, with something along the lines of

cache_peer ip-to-parent-proxy parent 8080 0 default
no-query login=squid:password

would do the trick. However, is there any way for Squid to prompt the
user for the login credentials that it would pass to the parent proxy?
The parent proxy itself uses HTTP authentication.

Thanks
