In this post i will show on how to configure squid proxy server to go through 389 LDAP authentication on linux CentOS 6.2 server. This authentication is using squid_ldap_auth module in that come with squid proxy. Assumed that you have 389 Ldap Directory server and Squid proxy configured. Squid service plays two main roles which mainly act as a caching proxy server between the user and the web. 389 Directory Server is an enterprise-class open source LDAP server for Linux.
Some informations regarding proxy server and ldap server.
Proxy server : 192.168.1.44 proxy.ehowstuff.local
LDAP server : 192.168.1.48 ldap.ehowstuff.local

How to Setup and Configure 389 Directory Server on CentOS 6.2
Add in this lines on your squid.conf file :
auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/squid_ldap_auth -b "dc=ehowstuff,dc=local" -f "uid=%s" -h ldap.ehowstuff.local acl ldapauth proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access allow ldapauth http_access deny all
“http_access deny all” is optional, it’s depend on your configuration.
Open squid.conf file and modify as below :

Proxy ip : 192.168.1.44
Domain/Hostname : proxy.ehowstuff.local
Port : 3128
Browser that was configured with proxy setting will prompt as below :
