I running Squid 2.7. I using NCSA veryfication so only registered users may use proxy server.
I want to allow only 1 connection to proxy for 1 user.
Why not per ip ? Alot of users have dynamic IP's and i want to avoid password sharing beetween users.
Any idea how to do it in squid ? Mb other autentyfication system connected to squid granting access to proxy server ?
Thx for all answers!
Spell your words out.
And you can do it by user, based on authentication. But you don't say anything about how they're doing it now. Check the Squid documentation about access control lists, and how to implement them.

Thx for your reply. At this moment users dont have any limits and as o wrote before im using Password Authentication with NCSA keeping username and passwords in file.
I was trying to find limiting users by login with ACL and found nothing :/ Any hints ?

Look at the delay_pools directive. Explanations can be found via Google, examples on the Squid website:
