Authenticating on the Umbraco backoffice with Active Directory credentials

Hey,

I'm trying the add Azure AD login for users on a Umbraco 8.3.0 Cloud.

When I try to login with a user i'm just getting a error 500 with message:

The server could not be contacted. and The LDAP server is unavailable.

I'm just using the code from documentaion her: https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/reference/security/authenticate-with-AD

Is it correct that I don't need to add ClientId or Tenant to the web.config ? but only the ActiveDirectoryDomain ??

I'm getting that LDAP error, too, after following that same documentation page for an 8.1.1 site. Did you solve this?

Hey Thoma Hansen, I implemented the Backoffice Authentication using Azure AD in Umbraco 8 and it's working fine for me. https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/reference/security/authenticate-with-AD

Yes for Azure Ad auth you need to POST these following data
```
<add key="azureAd:tenantId" value="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"/>
<add key="azureAd:clientId" value="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"/>
<add key="azureAd:redirectUrl" value="http://example.com/umbraco/"/>
<add key="azureAd:logoutUrl" value="http://example.com/umbraco/"/>
```
Please go through these blogs, you will get a detailed idea

My LDAP error was because I was configured for AD and without my VPN on I could not access my company AD domain. I need to set this up for Azure AD, so thanks for those resources, Dhanesh.

I have configured this successfully without auto-linking, so I login locally to Umbraco and then "Link Your Active Directory Account" in the User profile.
