RE: [squid-users] Anyone Use wbinfo_group.pl?

What exactly do you mean?

Should I set it up like this?
external_acl_type ntgroup %LOGIN /usr/lib/squid/wbinfo_group.pl
acl NoInternet external ntgroup NoInternet

http_access deny NoInternet ALL

So by default the last thing on the line is AUTH? What exactly does the
ALL do to make it not pop up (it appears to work btw).

Also, when changing group membership in AD, for the changes to take
effect would you have to reload squid, samba, and winbind? Is there
anyway (other than editing the default squid error page, to redirect
them if they are blocked? I do this with squidguard, not sure if its
possible with this script/squid.

Thanks

The credientials are asked again because auth is the last option to
complete the http_access rule.

There is a hack/workaround of adding 'all' as the last item on the line
which apparently prevents the credentials being sought if they fail the
first time.

I suspect your other rules go something like
   http_access !noauth localnet
which has the same effect of not requesting again on failure.
