[squid-users] Squid 3.4 sends Windows username without backslash to external wbinfo_group helper

Hi,

I use the below:

external_acl_type nt_group ttl=20 children-startup=10 children-max=70
children-idle=10 %LOGIN /usr/lib/squid3/ext_wbinfo_group_acl

to be able to use NT groups in my squid config. This works fine in 3.2
and 3.3, but I recently tried to upgrade to 3.4 and this stopped
working. In the cache.log there are hundreds of entries like:

Could not get groups for user DOMAINuser

Whereas the correct user name should be DOMAIN\user. If I pass the
correct username to the wbinfo_group helper it works, so it seems squid
is dropping the backslash in my 3.4 install (squid-3.4.1-20131216-r13058).

Going back the 3.3.11 makes everything work as expected.

Thanks

Alex
