Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm looking for some documentation on how to connect Photon OS 5.0 to Active Directory.
Now that likewise is removed, is sssd the preferred option?
Describe the solution you'd like
A wiki page with some tips on sssd and how to configure pam for ssh and console logins.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Red Hat and Canonical documentation gets close, but seems I'm missing some steps that are Photon specific.

Start by reviewing Photon OS 5.0's existing documentation and comparing the Red Hat and Canonical Active Directory guidance with the requested sssd setup. Done means a wiki page explains sssd and the Photon-specific PAM configuration needed for SSH and console logins.
