To Squid they are all the same thing: a method to verify if the user supplied login+password is valid. NCSA uses a local text file with crypt hashed passwords, same the good old NCSA web server (and its more well known successor Apache). LDAP uses a LDAP directory server, which is very useful is you use a LDAP directory server for your user accounts.. and each other basic auth helper connects to some other password source..
