Joao Victor Portal daa431e385 Updated OIDC app docs
This commit does 2 changes in the OIDC app docs:

1) The docs were updated to be explicit about the OIDC app being
   compatible with LDAP servers and not only with the Windows Active
   Directory;
2) The page "Centralized OIDC Authentication Setup for Distributed
   Cloud" was renamed to "Centralized vs Distributed OIDC Authentication
   Setup" and was moved in the index of pages to be right below the
   first page "Overview of LDAP Servers". The idea is to use this page
   as a entry point for someone learning about the OIDC app, because
   every user must decide between a centralized and a distributed setup
   and because this page has links to all other pages except
   "Deprovision LDAP Server Authentication".

Remote CLI Access
=================
You can access the system |CLIs| from a remote workstation using one of the two
methods.
.. xreflink .. note::
To use the remote Windows Active Directory server for authentication of
local :command:`kubectl` commands, see, |sec-doc|: :ref:`Overview of LDAP
Servers <overview-of-ldap-servers>`.
.. _remote-cli-access-ul-jt2-lcy-ljb:
#. The first method involves using the remote :abbr:`CLI (Command Line
Interface)` tarball from |dnload-loc| to install a set of container-backed
remote CLIs for accessing a remote |prod-long|. This provides
access to the kubernetes-related CLIs (kubectl, helm). This approach is
simple to install, portable across Linux, MacOS and Windows, and provides
access to all |prod-long| CLIs. However, commands such as those that
reference local files or require a shell are awkward to run in this
environment.
#. The second method involves installing the :command:`kubectl` and
:command:`helm` clients directly on the remote host. This method only
provides the kubernetes-related CLIs and requires OS-specific installation
instructions.
