Cory,

I doesn't seem to work using ldap_auth and W2K AD.
I'll try it your way, because I was already too long struggling on this. :(
It seems that samba 3.x no longer needs winbind, it even doesn't work
using winbind, according to the squid FAQ. Can you post your settings
or point me to some good how-to?

Thanks,
