Yes, with authentication.  The difference there is that the authentication 
was against LDAP instead of NT.

Here is the problem I am trying to solve and maybe there is a better 
solution then using the existing squid proxy and if so I'm open to it 
(SOCKS is the only thing I am not going to do ).  We are being forced to 
allow AIM access for our users.  Instead of just opening the AIM port on 
the firewall, I would prefer to send it through a proxy server of some 
type.  Since we already had Squid, that seemed the best way to do it 
except I have his this authentication issue.  If I have to open it 
straight thought the firewall I will I just wanted to check here first and 
see if there was anything I could do on Squid to make the authenitcation 
work (or if there is a better way to set this up then going through squid, 
I'm open except for SOCKS)
