I have done most of what you mentioned, although I didn't find the
"Settings and Authentication" part on the Realm Settings. I couldn't add
the new provider to it like you said, and the version I'm using is the one
available on the github repo.

Also I saw that I should probably implement a RealmAdapter aswell, to
provide access to my table structure, is that correct? If so, how should I
configure Keycloak to use my adapter to find users, and not it's default
one? Or at least not only it's default one
