Very high likelihood of being true. Guido is the author of the NTLM
negotiate code.

Not exactly, I'm the author of all the Windows NTLM and Negotiate native helpers.
The majority of the Squid NTLM code comes from Kinkie, Robert and Henrik.

About the question, yes, this is the NTLM and Negotiate nature: there is always a live challenge-response exchange between the client and the NTLM/Negotiate server.

Please note, starting from Squid 2.6 the NTLM negotiation is hard coded to on.

Regards

Guido
