LDAP with Squid

Hi

I've installed Squid and like to setup user authentication by the proxy with LDAP of my Windows 2003 server.
Who can help me.

This isn't currently supported in the squid package.

Typically options such as LDAP support that create added dependencies on fairly 'heavyweight' libraries are disabled by default in FreeBSD ports - and are therefore disabled in the FreeBSD package. This is to avoid pulling in a load of unnecessary baggage that many will not use, also there are at least four options for the OpenLDAP client libraries (2.3 or 2.4; in either case with or without SASL).

The www/squid30 port does have an LDAP option that you can set, but you'll need a FreeBSD box (or virtual machine) to build a suitable package, and you're on your own so far as getting the LDAP features going in pfSense.
