I'm working with a squid proxy server 2.4.
I'm using the proxy server for acces to the internet.
Every user who want to join the internet needs a loginname and password.
the passwords are in: /etc/squid/squid_passwd

I want users to change there password automaticly at login after every month. But every thing I try, it doesn't work but I no it is possible.

Can anyone please help me.....

Thanks

what authentication process did you use? i am planning to have the same setup with you. the thing is, i am going to use existing user accounts in the same linux box running squid. with that, i can make them change their password anytime they want using usermin.

but, i ain't successful with the authentication process. i'm using pam.

Does this get you going?

squid-cache.org also might.

yup. i already got the authentication part going. i'm on the user-based filtering process. thanks...
