You can and you can't.
You can authenticate against NT Users, but not NT groups.
There are a new authentication modules, with instructions, that come
with the current version. I think AUTH_NTLM, AUTH_SMB and AUTH_MLM.
All require you have SAMBA set up on your squid server.
All three do pretty much the same thing to various degrees. Let you
authenticate a username and password against NT.
You will still have to set up authorizations to what those users can get
to in squidGuard.
AFAIK NT Domain groups are useless to SquidGuard. I could see though,
how you may be able to hack some kind of NT Group permission, maybe.
I have squid guard set up to authenticate against a single NT domain
with multiple squidGuard groups with that are 'ALLOW'ed access to
different domains.
