RE: [squid-users] squid using NTLM Authentication - failed to acc ess sites that required authentication

No, I am not using transparent proxying. All test-users browsers are

No. I mean it in the traditional (but also incorrect) squid sense, where
the users don't have a configured proxy but a router using WCCP or a
unix router (using ipfilter/ipchains) intercepts the user TCP sessions
and redirects them to the squid server.
