[squid-users] Extract username and write it to the log file without NTLM?

Yes, I guess you mean the fake_auth ntlm authenticator. But in my optinion
there is a problem with it: Mozilla now supports NTLM auth on all the
platform, but you are prompted for a login/passwd. With the fake_auth, you
can put whatever you want as there is no check. With MSIE, there is no
prompt so it's more difficult to spoof. And if you have a look inside this
fake_auth, you'll see some comment from the authors telling that it
shouldn't be used in production as it is a proof of concept authenticator.

Not really. I have done some successfull testing with NTLM-dummy
authenticators.
Who cares about the password if you just want the username? No need to
check it with Samba/AD.
