[squid-users] Difficulty with pam_auth

Greetings all,

I got Squid up and running, but when attempting to configure
authentication using PAM, I have run into a few difficulties. Here
are the relevant configurations:

squid.conf:
auth_param digest program /usr/lib/squid/pam_auth
auth_param digest children 5
auth_param digest realm Proxy proxy-caching web server
auth_param digest nonce_garbage_interval 5 minutes
auth_param digest nonce_max_duration 30 minutes
auth_param digest nonce_max_count 50
#...
acl password proxy_auth REQUIRED
#...
http_access allow password

/etc/pam.d/squid:

auth required pam_unix.so nullok_secure
account required pam_unix.so

Authentication is requested as expected, yet fails. The following
lines are seen in auth.log:

Aug 14 18:23:21 localhost (pam_auth): (pam_unix) bad username ["stephen":"Proxy]

Looks like the pam_auth program was having troubles, but I don't know
what I can do to fix them.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

-Stephen.
