You may wish +# to look at the Squid home page (http://www.squid-cache.org/) +# for the FAQ and other documentation. +# +# The default Squid config file shows what the defaults for +# various options happen to be. If you don't need to change the +# default, you shouldn't uncomment the line. Doing so may cause +# run-time problems. In some cases "none" refers to no default +# setting at all, while in other cases it refers to a valid +# option - the comments for that keyword indicate if this is the +# case. +# + + +# Configuration options can be included using the "include" directive. +# Include takes a list of files to include. Quoting and wildcards is +# supported. +# +# For example, +# +# include /path/to/included/file/squid.acl.config +# +# Includes can be nested up to a hard-coded depth of 16 levels. +# This arbitrary restriction is to prevent recursive include references +# from causing Squid entering an infinite loop whilst trying to load +# configuration files. + + +# OPTIONS FOR AUTHENTICATION +# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +# TAG: auth_param +# This is used to define parameters for the various authentication +# schemes supported by Squid. +# +# format: auth_param scheme parameter [setting] +# +# The order in which authentication schemes are presented to the client is +# dependent on the order the scheme first appears in config file. IE +# has a bug (it's not RFC 2617 compliant) in that it will use the basic +# scheme if basic is the first entry presented, even if more secure +# schemes are presented. For now use the order in the recommended +# settings section below. If other browsers have difficulties (don't +# recognize the schemes offered even if you are using basic) either +# put basic first, or disable the other schemes (by commenting out their +# program entry). +# +# Once an authentication scheme is fully configured, it can only be +# shutdown by shutting squid down and restarting. Changes can be made on +# the fly and activated with a reconfigure. I.E. You can change to a +# different helper, but not unconfigure the helper completely. +# +# Please note that while this directive defines how Squid processes +# authentication it does not automatically activate authentication. +# To use authentication you must in addition make use of ACLs based +# on login name in http_access (proxy_auth, proxy_auth_regex or +# external with %LOGIN used in the format tag). The browser will be +# challenged for authentication on the first such acl encountered +# in http_access processing and will also be re-challenged for new +# login credentials if the request is being denied by a proxy_auth +# type acl. +# +# WARNING: authentication can't be used in a transparently intercepting +# proxy as the client then thinks it is talking to an origin server and +# not the proxy. This is a limitation of bending the TCP/IP protocol to +# transparently intercepting port 80, not a limitation in Squid. +# +# === Parameters for the basic scheme follow. === +# +# "program" cmdline +# Specify the command for the external authenticator.
