Authentication Helpers
Squid uses helper programs to handle the actual authentication requests.
It communicates with these programs by starting them as child
processes and writing to their standard in and reading the results from
their standard out.
Authentication is configured using auth_param directives in the form of
auth_param {scheme} {option} {value}
The options and values supported depend on the scheme being
configured.
