Both Winbind and Squid, depending on their configuration, may need to
authenticate against Samba to do their jobs. 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.
