How are these lists defined?

If you are using Samba then I suppose there is a Windows domain around
somewhere. Would it make sense to have these "userlists" defined as
Windows domain groups instead?

acl some_users proxy_auth -i "/path/to/list/of/someusers.txt"

ís one way..

The Windows domain group membership acl helper is also case-insensitive.
