What i actually want to do is depending on which group the user is depends how much access they get.
Eg group "somesites" gets access to only some sites.. Group "allsites" gets access to all sites.
You need to start with first getting the authentication to work. Then from there it is a relatively easy path to detail the access controls using groups.
LDAP group based access controls is done using squid_ldap_group. Start by reading the manual (man page). The most tricky part (apart from copy-pasting data from the squid_ldap_auth parameters) is figuring out the search filter for finding the proper group in your LDAP directory.
I tried what you said below, how do u actually enter the username and password in because all i get back if i type
<username>
Basic auth helpers expects the following input, as documented in squid.conf:
username <space> password <enter>
