I have smb running, when i type the following command (/usr/lib/squid/smb_auth -w ADMIN -U??10.0.0.1 -d)??with a valid AD username and password??it always comes back with ERR, and doesnt return the allow text thats inside the proxyauth file (blank at end of contents line).?? Therefore i assume its a permissions issue on my AD box.?? What permissions do i need to change and do i need to only change the permissions to the file or to the NETLOGON folder?.?? Is there anything else i need to do to get it working?

The "modern" way to get Squid to authenticate against AD is to use Samba/Winbind
to join/query the AD and the Samba-supplied ntlm_auth program to do the
authentication.

http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/ has an example I wrote up a while
ago which covers this.
