I have an instance of AWX setup and I am trying to configure it with MS Windows AD authentication. I am using the docker setup of AWX. 1) Where should I be looking for logs to help diagnose config issues? 2) Does anyone have an example of how it should be setup? A lot of what I’m finding seems to help a bit but not fully. What are you using for GroupType? I tried ActiveDirectoryGroup but it wouldn’t let me, is that something that is only available in Tower? Did you use anything in the LDAP User DN Template? LDAP Group User DN Template? LDAP User Search? etc etc ---

Please use that for your request. Regards          Racke
