[squid-users] Authentication with Squid 3.0 forwarding the authentication to external web content filter - Edirectory

We are currently using Squid 3.0 Stable 13. We are currently sending every= =3D one through the proxy/cache. We are implementing a user based web cont= ent =3D filtering solution (not a linux based solution) that authenticates = users ag=3D ainst edirectory. The current solution sends all users who use= the proxy s=3D erver as a guest account as the Squid box does not hit agai= nst edirectory. =3D My question is this, if I set up the squid caching se= rver to use the exte=3D rnal authentication (LDAP), will it pass the edirec= tory credentials onto th=3D e web filter or will it not pass them at all. = So if a client computer logs=3D into novell with the username jsmith will = it pass jsmith the to the web fi=3D lter or will it not pass any username?
