[SQU] ncsa_auth problem

Hi,

Sorry if this has been answered before, but honestly couldn't find what I
was looking for in the archive.

I am using ncsa_authentication and have got

authenticate_program /usr/local/squid/bin/ncsa_auth /etc/shadow &
authenticate_children 5

in squid.conf file.

Now with the command,
/usr/local/squid/bin/ncsa_auth /etc/shadow
username password
        gives Ok.

But from the browser when I try to use proxy with the same username and
password, it gives "Proxy Authentication Failure" and after 4 attempts log
file says "Too few authenticator processes are running" and squid
restarts.

What am I doing wrong?

Prakash.
