[squid-users] FATAL: The ntlmauthenticator helpers are crashing too rapidly, need help!

I cannot get squid to stay running... it keeps crashing. I am trying to
get it to authenticate with AD2003. I get good responses from wbinfo
and also from kinit. I have searched high and low for an answer, but
have only found the same problem from others. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Nate
