      Description of problem:

          No example configuration for Active Directory as an Identity Provider.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

          All

      How reproducible:

          Always

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1. Try to configure an LDAP Identity Provider connected to Active Directory.
          2.
          3.
          

      Actual results:

          No documentation exists for sound defaults for Active Directory.  Our competitors have simple and fast configuration defaults making this easier.

      Expected results:

          Quick ability to enter a few variables for sound defaults for Active Directory, preventing customers from having to troubleshoot multiple configuration options.  

      Additional info:

          e.g. sAMAccountName as an LDAP field for preferredUsername is case sensitive in our code. Microsoft PowerShell Get-ADUser outputs it as "SamAccountName" https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/activedirectory/get-aduser?view=windowsserver2022-ps
      
      Among other things, what are good, sound defaults for "id", "name", and "preferredUsername", such as objectGUID, displayName or givenName, and sAMAccountName respectively?
      
      Additionally, competitors use only a serviceacount name (e.g. svc_acct_1) and password, rather than a full serviceaccount bindDN (CN=svc_acct_1,OU=Finance,OU=UserAccounts,DC=FABRIKAM,DC=COM)
