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]

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

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.
