Configuring the Squid service

These instructions are applicable if Kaspersky Web Traffic Security was installed from an RPM or DEB package to an existing operating system. If Kaspersky Web Traffic Security was deployed from an ISO file, you cannot edit the configuration files of the built-in proxy server.

To configure the Squid service:

1. Add the following strings to the beginning of the /etc/squid/squid.conf file:

   auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp --domain=<NetBIOS name of the Active Directory domain>

   auth_param ntlm children 100 startup=0 idle=10

   auth_param ntlm keep_alive off

   acl authenticated_user proxy_auth REQUIRED

   http_access deny !authenticated_user

2. To enable event logging in debug mode, in the /etc/squid/squid.conf file, add the -d 10 option to the following line:

   auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth -d 10 --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp --domain=<NetBIOS name of the Active Directory domain>

   Debug events will be written to the file /var/log/squid/cache.log.

3. Restart the Squid service. To do so, execute the command:

   service squid restart

Configuration of the Squid service will be complete.
