#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import socket
import MySQLdb
#db = MySQLdb.connect(host=”localhost”, user=”root”, passwd=”",db=”squid”)
#cursor = db.cursor()
#b=1
db = MySQLdb.connect(host=”localhost”, user=”root”, passwd=”",db=”squid”)
cursor = db.cursor()

while True:
line = sys.stdin.readline()
line = line.strip()
username = line[:line.find(' ')]
password = line[line.find(' ')+1:]
cursor.execute(”"”select * from squid where uname=%s and pass=%s”"”,(username,password))
numrows = int(cursor.rowcount)
if numrows > 0:
sys.stdout.write(’OK\n’)

I think you have error in the mysql query .. it should be
cursor.execute(”"”select * from squid where uname=’%s’ and pass=’%s’”"”,(username,password))
because uname and password are strings …
