This is a browser question and outside the control of Squid.

Yes.

If you have a single LDAP database with all your users, and each user
have a unique login name not reused anywhere else in your LDAP tree then
the standard LDAP helper works fine with no modifications, just use the
search mode.

If the users are in different LDAP databases, or you multiple users have
the same login name then you need to use the open2 based wrapper (see
the squid-users archives) to multiple instances of squid_ldap_auth.
