Currently, I set it straight:

Hi!
If I want to extract a character from a specific position of a string, I can use ${string:1:1} (if I want character at the position 1). How can I do the same thing, when the number of position is contained in the variable? ${string:$var:1}doesn't work, unfortunately.
Thanks in advance. (2 Replies)

squid3_ncsa_auth
ncsa_auth(8) System Manager's Manual ncsa_auth(8)
NAME
ncsa_auth - NCSA httpd-style password file authentication helper for Squid
SYNOPSIS
ncsa_auth passwdfile
DESCRIPTION
ncsa_auth allows Squid to read and authenticate user and password information from an NCSA/Apache httpd-style password file when using
basic HTTP authentication.
The only parameter is the password file. It must have permissions to be read by the user that Squid is running as (cache_effective_user in
squid.conf).
This password file can be manipulated using htpasswd.
* MD5 - with optional salt and magic strings * DES - for passwords 8 characters or less in length
OPTIONS
Only specify the password file name.
EXAMPLE
ncsa_auth /etc/squid/squid.pass
SECURITY
ncsa_auth must have access to the password file to be executed.
KNOWN ISSUES
DES functionality (used by htpasswd by default) silently truncates passwords to 8 characters. Allowing login with password values shorter
than the one desired. This authenticator will reject login with long passwords when using DES.
