This playbook is a nice tool for people that often create Microsoft Active Directory installations in Lab environments and are too lazy to set it up manually.
Usually I'm using this Ansble Playbook to make Red Hat IdM Workshops and showcasing Cross Domain Trusts between Red Hat IdM and Active Directory. For IdM I wrote another playbook which can be found here: https://github.com/ldelouw/rh-ipa-ansible-playbook

First you need to copy the vars.yml.dist to vars.yml, inventory.dist to inventory.dist, passwd.yml.dist to passwd.yml. Edit the files in question to match your environment. The password for the Ansible Vault file is changeme. It's recommended to change the password to something more secure:
ansible-vault rekey passwd.yml
Afterwards, edit the passwd.yml with ansible-vault edit passwd.yml and set the passwords used for the AD Administrator and the users.
