Re: [squid-users] Squid/ldap authentication via Novell NDS

Thank you Henrik,
I got it working now after switching the squid_ldap_auth option from
(cn=%s) to (uid=%s)

Thank again,
Daniel

Is this new tree set to allow plain text authentication?

From what I remember NDS is by default a little picky about plain text

authentication and requires the connection to be SSL encrypted..

I could not see anything obviously wrong in your configuration, but I
would recommend running squid_ldap_auth and squid_ldap_group from the
command line to verify the functionality of each part.

Both also have a -d flag to make them a little more verbose about what

they are doing.
