Squid can do this, but only by sending a fake password. It does not have
access to the users actual password when using NTLM (only GINA on the
client workstation has knowledge of the users actutal password when
using NTLM... (not even the domain controller knows..)

See the login= cache_peer option for the available choices on how to
forward the authenticated user name to peer proxies.
