Amos, Thank you for the update in regards to the credentials.
I looked into it a bit more to and it helped clear my misunderstanding. The credentialstls configuration directive only controls how often these credentials are internally verified by Squid. It means that if the browser is closed and then opened and the browser pops up credential dialog, then it has nothing to do with Squid. It means that the browser does not know what credentials it should pass to the proxy and therefore asks to enter them. The credentialsttl configuration directive means, how often the password should be "verified" after the last successful verification. I reviewed my authentication config and changed it. Is this correct? We have a this setup via realmD, sssd, using Kerberos authentication. auth_param basic program /usr/lib64/squid/basic_pam_auth auth_param basic children 10 auth_param basic keep_alive on auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic realm <redacted> -----Original Message----- From: squid-users <squid-users-boun...@lists.squid-cache.org> On Behalf Of Amos Jeffries Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2024 6:05 AM To: squid-users@lists.squid-cache.org Subject: Re: [squid-users] Unable to access a device over port 4434 Caution: This email originated from outside of Hexcel.
