[squid-users] digest auth IE problem accessing protected content

Hi all,

New to squid, and am having a problem with IE6 accessing password protected
content. I've searched the FAQ and the archives but not found an answer.

Squid is configured to use digest authentication, which is working fine,
however when visiting a site that itself requires basic authentication there
are problems;
IE prompts the user to enter the username/password to access the content,
which is correct, but then it asks for the squid authentication details
again, repeatedly for every page accessed. I'm guessing IE is mixing up the
passwords etc.?

It all works fine in Firefox and Opera, but sadly I have to get it to work
with IE!

Anyone have a workaround?

Many thanks,

Bryan
