Been trying to figure this out for a while to no avail...
I have a squid3 proxy server setup on a separate machine on a different network. I'm using the digest user protocol to store access usernames and such for the squid3 server. The config file looks as follows:
auth_param digest program /usr/lib/squid3/digest_file_auth -c /etc/squid3/passwords
auth_param digest realm proxy
acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow authenticated
http_port 8888
access_log /squid3_logs/access.log squid
cache_store_log /squid3_logs/store.log
cache_log /squid3_logs/cache.log
I can connect via my web browser with no issue at all (it prompts me for username/password, I enter it, and then have access). However, if I try to force Skype to use the proxy configuration, it sits at the spinning refresh icon forever, never connecting. I really just want all ports and services allowed through the squid server for each user, which is what I thought I had configured, but apparently not. My Linux version is Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 LTS.
Thanks in advance!
