  - Standard installation w/o AD selected
  - Standard installation with AD and correct connection information
  - Standard installation with AD and wrong connection information (wrong domain, wrong user or wrong password)
  - Failure of pam_mkhomedir
  
  We also tested on Kubuntu Desktop to ensure that the AD checkbox is not
