Hi,

I am using Squid as an explicit proxy (configured in the browsers) and have 
configured it to authenticate all users with Kerberos.
Here are the relevant bits from squid.conf

auth_param negotiate program /usr/lib64/squid/negotiate_kerberos_auth -r -s 
HTTP/proxytest1.mydomain....@mydomain.com -k /etc/squid/HTTP.keytab
auth_param negotiate children 10
auth_param negotiate keep_alive on

I know I should be expecting 407s for new TCP connections and pages do load a 
bit slower compared to Basic Auth.
But that isn't the problem. The problem is at times some of the web pages 
resources (GET requests mostly) just hang there endlessly. (Chrome just says 
pending)
When I do a refresh, the browser loads that very same resource(say a .js/.css 
file) just fine.

This is just a test setup and I looked at the negotiate helper stats. Here
   ID #          FD         PID     # Requests          # Replies            # 
Timed-out       Flags        Time   Offset  Request

                   0                    0.014         0       (none)
      2            17        99485           74          74           0         
           0.016         0       (none)
      3            21      106324                           4             4     
        0                    0.025         0       (none)

I don't think they are the problem.
Any thoughts on what could be going on here? I don't have a way to reproduce 
this reliably so far and this happens intermittently.

Regards,
