It's a fairly strange situation. We have several development pairing stations. Developers share a root login on these machines. We need to authenticate through the corporate proxy to hit the internet. We are using squid to do this encryption. However, developers have to enter their personal credentials into the squid file for this to work. Any developer can see others network credentials by opening this file.

Why would you want to do that?
