[Fedora-directory-users] About the password sync feature
Hello there,
I'm in the process of installing a new LDAP directory using FDS, and am
willing to synchronize the password modifications between AD domains and
the corresponding users in the LDAP directory. These users are not
synchronized, but the ntUserDomain attribute is set to the corresponding
AD account.
After reading the RH admin guide, I still have a few questions, which are :
1_ Can the Password Sync feature be implemented without having to
implement synchronization of the accounts between AD and FDS ?
2_ When you have multiple AD servers per domain, and multiple AD
domains, how many copies of the PassSync service do you need to install
? Can the service be installed on only one server per domain, or do I
need to install it on every server ? (I'm no AD guru, so I'm not sure
how and when the password is definitly encoded on AD).
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Regards,
Thierry
