Hi All,
I've got a beautifully working squid server with NTLM then BASIC auth so
windows automatically authenticates and Linux can use basic auth.
basically it's <squid-2.5.STABLE3.tar.gz> compiled with ntlm,basic support.
2 questions:
1. We have a number of users that use Adobe Web Capture to PDF file. with
basic auth only turned on it prompts for a password like it should. with
NTLM and then basic turned on (which works for everything else), it says
failed to authenticate. i gather it's trying to use NTLM and failing.
Linux machines work fine because they use the basic auth.
According to http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-10.html i can use a
regex for what the browser sends in the header or something. IE sends
'Mozzilla' but i've no idea what Adobe sends or if it even sends something
different. (here's hoping it does). can someone help out with that one?
2. has anybody noticed with the latest build with NTLM that some browsers
just go to sleep for a while and after about 2 mins squid comes back and
says dest server not available or something. client i noticed it on was XP
with all the latest updates.
here's my conf file:
