+    ```
+

+
+      sudo -u git -H editor config/gitlab.yml
+    ```
+
+1. See [Initial OmniAuth Configuration](../../integration/omniauth.md#initial-omniauth-configuration)
+   for initial settings.
+
+1. Add the provider configuration:
+
+    **Omnibus:**
+
+    ```ruby
+      gitlab_rails['omniauth_providers'] = [
+        {
+          "name" => "crowd",
+          "args" => {
+            "crowd_server_url" => "CROWD_SERVER_URL",
+            "application_name" => "YOUR_APP_NAME",
+            "application_password" => "YOUR_APP_PASSWORD"
+          }
+        }
+      ]
+    ```
+
+    **Source:**
+
+    ```
+       - { name: 'crowd',
+           args: {
+             crowd_server_url: 'CROWD_SERVER_URL',
+             application_name: 'YOUR_APP_NAME',
+             application_password: 'YOUR_APP_PASSWORD' } }
+    ```
+1. Change `CROWD_SERVER_URL` to the URL of your Crowd server.
+1. Change `YOUR_APP_NAME` to the application name from Crowd applications page.
+1. Change `YOUR_APP_PASSWORD` to the application password you've set.
+1. Save the configuration file.
+1. [Reconfigure][] or [restart][] for the changes to take effect if you
+   installed GitLab via Omnibus or from source respectively.
+
+On the sign in page there should now be a Crowd tab in the sign in form.
