If you configure Squid to control access to the Internet based on "Windows" users stored in Samba (user X can access sites A, B and C, user Y can't access sites D, E and F and so on), it will use NTLM to authenticate this users. Winbind will need to authenticate against Samba if your Linux users need to logon to the "Windows" domain stored in Samba, or if they want to access shared resources (printers, file sharings) protected with "Windows" domain security.
