Description Valentin Heidelberger

Jenkins currently ships without a ready-to-go LDAP auth configuration. One has to manually enable and configure LDAP auth via Settings -> Global Security at the moment.

I think users might expect the app to ship with such a configuration (at least I did), because it's in the public App Center.
On the other hand Jenkins itself does not ship ready-to-go either. There's still an installation wizard to be completed. The wizard also contains a plugin selection where a user could decide to not install the required LDAP plugin (which is marked as suggested and thus installed by default) at all.
I think it would be nice to have a working LDAP auth, if the user decides to keep the LDAP plugin in the installation wizard. It might also be a good idea to activate LDAP as auth backend by default (maybe just granting Domain Admins access?)
Not sure how all that could be achieved from a technical perspective though.
