I assume that you've read:
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/blob/master/docs/Usage/Authentication.md#authentication-modules
And found the ldap module that works (best) with your existing LDAP setup?
Getting authentication working with the standard python client would be
my first step.

This begs the question: how do you expect the html5 client to provide
different credentials for each user if they use the same URL?
The xpra-html5 client does not currently support making ldap queries,
only the xpra server does.
I believe others may have already bolted this feature onto the html5 client.

To the same session or do you have a separate session for each user?

This should not be a problem - though the webcam performance may not be
good enough.
Using a proxy server to dispatch multiple client connections adds
another layer of complexity.

Authentication integration work is pretty much always a manual process
that requires a clear understanding of the business requirements.
Even if such a guide were to exist, it's unlikely to match your use-case.
