[squid-users] some staff are randomly prompted for authentication

Hi all,

I'm a Linux noob. I've managed to get Linux, Samba, and Squid working
without bugging anybody. I've run into one hiccup that I'm unable to
figure out.

I'm requiring ntlm authentication for Squid which works great, but I've
had a few calls (and experienced it once myself) where Squid is
prompting for authentication after a user has been surfing already.

I'm hoping somebody will have some insight for me!

Thanks!

Here is my environment:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 5)
squid-2.5.STABLE3-6.3E.9
samba-3.0.9-1.3E.3 (connected to AD)
Clients are Windows Server 2003 Citrix sessions

Here are my configs:
