NAME
squid_unix_group - Squid UNIX Group external_acl helper
SYNOPSIS
squid_unix_group [-g groupname] [-g groupname...] [-p] [-s]
DESCRIPTION
This helper allows Squid to base access controls on users memberships
in UNIX groups.
-g groupname
Specifies a group name to match.
-p Also match the users primary group from /etc/passwd
-s Strip NT domain name component from user names (/ or \
separated)
EXAMPLES
This squid.conf example defines two Squid acls. usergroup1 matches
users in group1, and usergroup2 matches users in group2 or group3
external_acl_type unix_group %LOGIN
/usr/local/squid/libexec/squid_unix_group -p
acl usergroup1 external unix_group group1

NOTES
By default up to 11 groups can be matched in one acl (including
commandline specified groups). This limit is defined by MAX_GROUPS in
the source code.
