[squid-users] auth issue with chrome

Hello altogether

As the topic indicates I have a problem with google chrome
authenticating against a windows server 2008 aktive directory. Firefox,
for example works fine.

These are the authentication lines I have in my squid.conf:

auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth
--helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp
auth_param ntlm children 10
auth_param basic program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth
--helper-protocol=squid-2.5-basic
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Squid proxy server, using basic
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours

I assume the problem is having ntlm at first position. Google chrome
tries to supply my credentials via ntlm, which fails. However unlike
firefox it is not offering the basic scheme after canceling the login
dialog. Therefore all users with google chrome can`t use the proxy.

Do you have any ideas of how to adress this problem, aside from using
basic as standard authentication scheme (which I would like to avoid due
to the unencrypted passwords)???

If you need any additional information I am happy to provide it.

Thanks in advance

Benedikt
