squid_unix_group
squid_unix_group(8) System Manager's Manual squid_unix_group(8)
NAME
squid_unix_group - Squid UNIX Group external_acl helper
SYNOPSIS
squid_unix_group [-g groupname] [-g groupname...] [-p] [-s]
DESCRIPTION
This helper allows Squid to base access controls on users memberships in UNIX groups.
-g groupname
Specifies a group name to match.
-p Also match the users primary group from /etc/passwd
-s Strip NT domain name component from user names (/ or separated)
EXAMPLES
This squid.conf example defines two Squid acls. usergroup1 matches users in group1, and usergroup2 matches users in group2 or group3
external_acl_type unix_group %LOGIN /usr/local/squid/libexec/squid_unix_group -p
acl usergroup1 external unix_group group1
acl usergroup2 external unix_group group2 group3
NOTES
By default up to 11 groups can be matched in one acl (including commandline specified groups). This limit is defined by MAX_GROUPS in the
source code.

KNOWN ISSUES
Does not understand gid aliased groups sometimes used to work around groups size limitations. If you are using gid aliased groups then you
must specify each alias by name.
QUESTIONS
Any questions on usage can be sent to Squid Users <squid-users@squid-cache.org>
