Hello all,

>This is a known bug. There was a pull request fixing it in master/v7[1], but it was decided that it is best to remove IDENT support from v7 instead of improving IDENT code. I think it was the right >decision.

>Squid v6 still has IDENT support. I cannot offer an official fix for Squid v6, but I know that the following _unofficial_ patch applies to the latest v6 sources. I have not tested whether that patch fixes the >bug in v6.

Since IDENT won't be available any longer with v7 - how are other users using an IDENT-setup today are changing their setups? I am still looking for a simple way. One way could be using external_acl_type and write some specific helper.

Regards, Uwe
