Re: [squid-users] Digest authentication not working

Hi

First try using a simple word as realm, taking care there's no space or
non-printing character after it in squid.conf.

I've had a problem when setting 'auth_param digest realm <Something>' and
left a space after the '<Something>' string. Remember that digest uses MD5.
