Subject: [squid-users] TCP_DENIED/407

Good day.
We have recently started using squid2.5stable9 with NTML
authentication. Authentication works fine. However, there are times
with access to Internet websites seem slow. I reviewed the access.log
and found the entries below:
1117161853.042 3 10.2.141.234 TCP_DENIED/407 1741 GET
http://gmail.google.com/gmail? NONE/- text/html
1117161853.081 12 10.2.141.234 TCP_DENIED/407 1768 GET
http://gmail.google.com/gmail? NONE/- text/html
For example, I logged into my gmail account and there are times when
gmail would display loading when i open new messages but nothing
happens. this is when i'll see the above entries in the access.log.
Does squid try to reauthenticate again? Is there anyway of preventing
this?
Thanks much.

The TCP_DENIED/407 entries in your access log are normal. This is just
how NTLM authentication works. We find that TCP_DENIED/407 entries take
up approximately 25% of the total number of entries in our access log.

Ken.
