Hello,

I have got success integrating with squid but just curious to know how it works as a command line

It will return either a 0 or a 1 so if you use it in a script, you would use is as part of a test.

/usr/bin/ntlm_auth --username=satish --domain=satdomain && echo authenticated || echo failure

As far as I know you would need to be using a domain and wins and run the command as root. Maybe this could be useful: /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --username=satish --domain=satdomain --dianostics
