    .EXAMPLE

    Request and Accept a certificate from an Active Directory Root Certificate Authority.

    This example is allowing storage of credentials in plain text by setting PSDscAllowPlainTextPassword to $true.

    Storing passwords in plain text is not a good practice and is presented only for simplicity and demonstration purposes.

    To learn how to securely store credentials through the use of certificates,
