If you get a login+password prompt (no domain) then you are not using
NTLM authentication. Instead you are using Basic authentication.

NTLM authentication is configured via the

  auth_param ntlm ...

directives in Squid.conf.

and as "auth_param ntlm program .." you must use one of the NTLM helpers
to Squid (winbind/SMB/fakeauth/no_check).
