I have used both winbind and LDAP to connect Squid to Win 2K AD directories. LDAP always works but requires a few more parameters to get it right, and winbind works if the AD is configured to support NT servers joining the domain.
Using the Squid winbind helpers with Samba-3.0 is not recommended at the moment.. at this time it is uncertain exacly where the boundary between Squid and Samba will be at the time of Samba-3.0 when it comes to NT domain authentication.
