Not directly, but you can use the userlist from NT to create the initail userlist
for Squid. Sadly I forget how to get the list of users as a Text file!
I did this today but used the passwd file from my email machine. Perhaps if
you are using Samba and keeping the users syncrhonised you could use the
main password file, but this is not considered good practice.
I am using separate files so I can take away students access to the internet
without taking away their access to the network.
