The squid_ldap_group manpage is the best source of documentation.
If you look closely at the current helper you will find that the
squid_ldap_group has user related options which corresponds to
similar options of squid_ldap_auth (but different case in some), in
addition to the group related options. By specifying the same values
for these options as specified for the similar options you will make
the helper search for the user in the exact same manner as
squid_ldap_auth before looking up group membership.
This allows the helper to operate with normal LDAP groups having the
users DN in the member attribute, regardless of which user object
attribute you use for the login name,
The %a/%v things are obsolete and replaced by %u/%g (but still work).
These were used by the older helper shipped in 2.5.STABLE1. See the
squid_ldap_group documentation shipped in 2.5.STABLE1 for
specification of %a/%v.
