I checked the Samba instructions, but didn't find anything specific on load
balancing, just one paragraph mentioning that Samba will contact the
password server in the order specified, so you can change the order to load
balancing.

Did you mean that Squid doesn't do any load balancing, and it is all
handled by ntlm_auth tool? In that case, it would be fail-over, instead of
load balancing, right?

Thanks!
