Re: [squid-users] smb_auth problems

I am not using the smb_auth helper, but from the smb_auth documentation:

Create a file named "proxyauth" on the NETLOGON share of the primary
domain controller. In case you have one or more backup domain
controllers, I'm assuming you are replicating this share to the backup
domain controllers. If you prefer, you can change the location of this
file by using the -S option of smb_auth (see below).

My notes:

NETLOGIN is a special share used by Windows logon, not the same as the
users home directory..
