Hello,
I installed the Squid-cache on Debian 12, then I installed the Apache utils:
$ sudo apt install apache2-utils
After it, I did the following steps:
$ sudo touch /etc/squid/passwd
$ sudo chown proxy /etc/squid/passwd
Then:
$ sudo htpasswd /etc/squid/passwd jason
After it, I opened the "/etc/squid/squid.conf" file and add the following lines
to it:
auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/basic_ncsa_auth /etc/squid/passwd
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Squid Basic Authentication
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours
acl auth_users proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow auth_users
http_access deny all
Finally:
$ sudo systemctl restart squid
But, on the client machine, I can visit any website without the username and
password.
Which part of the configuration is wrong?
Many things could go wrong, but I would start from the beginning:
Perhaps the client (browser) is not configured to use the proxy? Do you
see client transactions reflected in Squid access.log? Anything in Squid
cache.log?
HTH,
Alex.
