[squid-users] Squid Compilation and Active Directory Authentication

purpose:
 
To authenticate squid users through active directory before allowing them access to internet.
 
 
Compile Options:
 
./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=${prefix}/lib/squid --srcdir=. --datadir=${prefix}/shares/squid --sysconfdir=/etc/squid3 --enable-cache-digests --enable-removal-policies=lru --enable-delay-pools --enable-storeio=aufs,ufs --with-large-files --disable-ident-lookups --with-default-user=proxy --enable-basic-auth-helpers="LDAP" --enable-auth="basic,negotiate,ntlm" --enable-external-acl-helpers="wbinfo_group,ldap_group" --enable-negotiate-auth-helpers="squid_kerb_auth"
 
 
Question:
 
1. --enable-digest-auth-helpers=\"list of helpers\" if this option to have any role in authentication through active directory.
 
2. If comiling with more options then you currently required has a down side or its a good option to compile with as many options as you can guess you may need in future.
 
3. Could you refer to an online complete guide for the authentication of squid users through active directory. Currently i am refering to these hoping that they are the latest and complete.
