[squid-users] Regarding Ntlm authentication

Hi All,

I am using squid 2.7 stable7 and i configured ntlm authentication to
authenticate against active directory
I followed steps as in wiki squid
The squid.conf is as follows
auth_param basic program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth
--helper-protocol=squid-2.5-basic
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours
acl AuthorizedUsers proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow AuthorizedUsers

When i set direct proxy in firefox it asks for a username and password
.The initial windows has realm as "" when i give user name and password
it asks again then i select cancel means another window asks me a
password in this realm is "The site says: "Squid proxy-caching web
server" " when i give user name and password i can able to browse.
When i use the same in internet explorer it asks for password
continuously but no success
Why two different prompt appear for user name and password and why it
is not working in IE.

Kindly help me

Regards
senthil
