digest_ldap_auth is a standard digest helper shipped with Squid since
some years back.. It's not Windows related.

The use of digest requires access to either plaintext passwords or
specifically digest hashed password hashes in the LDAP directory. It can
not use simple LDAP authentication like squid_ldap_auth.
