Yes I have used rpm -ql and found out location.
So my command in .conf file is
"auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/ncsa_auth
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd"
I have created password file. path
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd. tried to creat username
and passowd by command
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# htpasswd −bd
/usr/local/squid/etc/passwd xyz ads
Gets following error.
Usage:
htpasswd [-cmdps] passwordfile username
htpasswd -b[cmdps] passwordfile username
password
htpasswd -n[mdps] username
htpasswd -nb[mdps] username password
-c Create a new file.
-n Don't update file; display results on stdout.
-m Force MD5 encryption of the password.
-d Force CRYPT encryption of the password (default).
-p Do not encrypt the password (plaintext).
-s Force SHA encryption of the password.
-b Use the password from the command line rather
than prompting for it.
On Windows, NetWare and TPF systems the '-m' flag is
used by default.
On all other systems, the '-p' flag will probably not
work.
Thanks for support.
