# ActiveDirectory Module

The Active Directory module allows users to be imported from an AD via LDAP. The users are imported with name and display name. Authentication takes place in the login dialog opposite the AD, which checks at any time whether this user still exists. The IP address, the password and the user of the AD must be entered. Via the button "Test" the input can be checked for correctness by connecting to the AD.
