[~spolavarapu], good work here. Can you help in moving the PDF into Apache Wiki 
page? I have created a place holder page, but I am not able to copy paste from 
the PDF. I am losing all the formatting. You might be able to do it with the 
raw format you might have.

If you can give me your wiki id, I can give you the permission to update it.

Few suggestions:
1. Need instructions to build and run the tool
2. Sample input files. You can copy the snippet in the wiki page

Thanks

> A common use-case for Ranger is to sync the enterprise LDAP/AD users and make 
> the process of defining authorization policies simpler. Currently, making 
> this integration to LDAP/AD server require some effort from the administrator 
> as Ranger provides many properties that need to be configured to sync the 
> LDAP/AD users.
> It would be very helpful to have a tool that helps administrators to 
> configure LDAP properties for Ranger UserSync and LDAP/AD authentication for 
> Ranger Admin. 
> For example, this tool can collect minimal input about the LDAP/AD server and 
> provide suggestions for various other LDAP/AD properties in order to 
> successfully pull only targeted Users and Groups from the LDAP/AD server. 
> Admins can change the input and verify if they are correct by validating the 
> users/groups retrieved. 
> Once all the properties are discovered and tested with the tool, these values 
> can be applied in Ranger config. This will save time and reduce errors when 
> configuring ranger usersync and admin.
