sure, but it's not that simple.
there are local (at user-squid) acls which are also responsible to
restrict access.
eg. internet-access is restricted to some users, we also distinguish
between "browsing" and
"downloading" the internet, for that we use NTLM auth togehter with
"some" local acls.

with this scenario we provide services at about 150 subsidiaries and
30.000 users...
