Hi Everyone. I just finished configuring the Chef Server with AD and now I am working on doing the same with supermarket. I cant seem to figure out what to put in my supermarket.rb file for this – does anyone know how to specify the AD values (such as base dn, bind dn, etc) for supermarket?

Thanks!

Supermarket does not authenticate directly via AD/LDAP, but authenticates users via the Chef Server. Steps to [configure Chef Server and Supermarket for oauth2](https://docs.chef.io/install_supermarket.html#chef-identify) can be found in the docs site.
