So I just tried using wbinfo_group.pl manually.
we are using this together with several Active directory server for authentication, but i never found an rpm. You have to compile a new version of squid (--with-ntlm-auth and --with-wb_group or so...), install a recent samba version, start the winbind server and try it out! Would it be enough to just compile the wb_group stuff and use the wb_group binary with the standard squid?
No. AFAIK the support for this must be in the squid binary - (squid folks correct me if I'm wrong!). I did _not_ find an rpm for squid with this support. Even though parts of it seems to work with some stuff from the suse binary rpm of squid-beta, i cannot recommend this. it's to dirty a hack! The clean solution is: configure, make, install squid and then do some symlinks, some editing in startscripts and then it works.
So that I could avoid self-compiling the whole thing every time there is a security-update?
Again: AFAIK - there's no other way around.
Are there advantages to using the wb_group binary instead of wbinfo_group.pl (which doesn´t need an additional compile)?
Yes. the wbinfo_group.pl worked. the wb_group stuff never worked here. wbinfo_group is a simple (even i can grasp it) perl skript, that just does several wbinfo - xxx checks and combines them in order to get info about group memberships. Have a look at it - it's really simple.
