If it helps the major history that I recall for NTLM is: - There was a broken branch, I don't recall the original author, Pat someone perhaps. - Using it as inspiration Kinkie and I overhauled the squid internals and went beyond the fake helper that had been created to get a actual SMB implementation running; this failed miserably in production where Kinkie worked though... - Andrew Bartlett chimed in around this point with the samba winbindd helper which solved the reliability problems the SMB approach had by allowing the local machine to generate challenges. - Guido wrote native helpers for windows (analogous to the winbindd helper on unix machines) -Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt>.
