squid_auth_shadow 1.2

squid_auth_shadow provides a shadow-based authentication module for squid.

squid_auth_shadow is a small authentication module for squid. It uses information from /etc/shadow for authentication.

Aliases for UNIX user names may be used and certain users may be explicitly blocked.

The module works on every system which uses shadow passwords.

Requirements:

· the Squid Proxy Server
· a system with shadow passwords
· a perl distribution with suidperl installed

What's New in This Release:

· A logging facility was added.
· The standard output is now flushed before serving authentication to squid.
· It should no longer become stuck in certain rare cases.
