 # How to configure LDAP with GitLab CE
 
-## Introduction

 Managing a large number of users in GitLab can become a burden for system administrators. As an organization grows so do user accounts. Keeping these user accounts in sync across multiple enterprise applications often becomes a time consuming task.
 
 In this guide we will focus on configuring GitLab with Active Directory. [Active Directory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Directory) is a popular LDAP compatible directory service provided by Microsoft, included in all modern Windows Server operating systems.
