Post by linuxboy_inside »

hi to all

is it possible that transparent proxy and basic authentication in squid can work together?

basic authentication in my squid proxy work well, but when i tried to enable the transparent proxy i have an error of "access denied"

thanks

Dear linuxboy_inside,
Salam,

There are some restrictions with transparent proxies and authentication. You could use squid's acls to setup some kind of restrictions. Also, you can use something like squidGuard to allow/deny based on almost anything from time of day to destination url to keywords in urls to specific ips, etc.

Best Regards.
