Squid3 issues for sites have authentication


Hi,

We have a Squid server setup, it is not a Transparent proxy.

squid3 -v
Squid Cache: Version 3.1.14

Squid doesn't need any authentication

For one particular site, when we access the site, the site asks for authentication. that is normal as Site has a user name and password.

When we supply the valid user name and password, it doesn't go through. Instead it prompts for password again and again.

I tried to by pass the proxy using always_direct, but that doesn't work either.

Any thing I am missing here ?

Regards,

A

Check the log files. /var/log/squid on my server, but their location can be configured in the squid config file. The access log should be most helpful.

You can also configure the logs to include verbose or debug messages.
