FW: [squid-users] "Can't Contact Windbindd. Dying" error

When configuring Squid 2.5 STABLE-8 I used these configure options:

--enable-auth="ntlm,basic"
--enable-basic-auth-helpers="winbind"
--enable-ntlm-auth-helpers="winbind"

Should I have included:

--with-samba-sources=/usr/local/samba-(version)

as well?

Is it possible that that might be causing the error mentioned?

Hi Everyone;
 
I'm in the process of configuring Squid on a linux box.
 
I've successfully configured Samba (3.0.10.0) to communicate with my
Windows 2003 domain. I am able to authenticate using both plain-text
and ntlm authentication using the wbinfo tool. I also receive a good
reply when using 'wbinfo -p'.
 
I've compiled squid (2.5 STABLE-8) with ntlm and basic helpers,
everything seemed to go well and Squid has been installed into its
default path (/usr/local/squid/).
 
What I am attempting to do is test the nt_auth helper outside of Squid
before configuring Squid to use NTLM authentication and I am receiving
the error mentioned in the subject line. Can anyone think of any reason
why I would be receiving that error if everything checks out okay with
winbind? I'm sure that it's something simple that I'm missing...
 
Thanks!
