The Node.js module you're referring to was created for Active Directory authentication and related tasks. It served as a wrapper around ldapjs. However, it's essential to note that this module is now deprecated. The last update was made four years ago, and it may not be compatible with the latest versions of Node.js or ldapjs. As a result, it's advisable to seek alternative solutions or modules if you require up-to-date and reliable Active Directory authentication functionality.
