To do that
1. Get the source files of squid and when you unpack the file, look for a
directory named auth_modules in the directories. This contains the
authentication modules.
2. Compile the module you wanna use by going in its dir. and do a "make".
3. change the squid.conf file and add the following
authenticate_program /path/to/your/module
like I use
authenticate_program /etc/squid/bin/pam_auth
Different authentication modules require different kinda config. In your
case the NCSA module would require you to use a seperate password file for
it which you;d have to create using htpasswd.
For others, go through the files in the individual directories for the
procedure.
