Fetch the tar file.

tar xvf squid-2.3.STABLE5-src.tar.gz
cd squid-2.3.STABLE5
./configure
cd auth_modules/NCSA
make

Looks odd. Same thing as
acl proxy proxy_auch REQUIRED

If you only want a subset of your users from the password file then list
those users and do not use REQUIRED.

Do you or do you not have ncsa_auth running? Without a password
validation helper there is no way that Squid can verify the correctness
of the entered password. To use the proxy_auth ACL type you must have a
working authenticate_program defined.
