If i select negotiate/Kerberos as authentication protocol for my Squid on Linux 
and configure no FallBack Authentication.what would be the consequence ?
 
 
 
1. Isnt it that all of my users who have logged into Active Directory and where 
browser is supported will be able to use squid?
 
 
 
2. Only those users who will try to use squid from a workgroup giving their 
domain passoword (domainname/userid) will fail as there will be no fallback 
aviablable.
 
 
 
3. Is there any other scenario in which these users will not be able to use 
squid? 
 
 
 
I would be really thankful if you guide me further as i am failing to 
understand why a fallback authentication is necessary if it is. What could be 
the scenario when windows clients have no valid TGT even if they are login to 
the domain? I hope you can understand me and help me to clear my self.
 
 
regards,
