[Fedora-directory-users] FDS sync to eDirectory

[Jeff Garner]

currently we have AD, eDir syncing using the Novell DirXML driver and a
'shim' installed on all AD DC's worldwide.  TO avoid having to replicate
this structure from Active Directory using FDS, we have decided to use
eDirectory sync to FDS.

Currently we can sync FROM eDir to FDS, including passwords.  No issues
there.  The problem is that we want to sync only password changes from
FDS back into eDir.  I can understand some of the complexities on this,
however can anyone point me in a direction of information to do this
task?  

basically I want one way from eDir to FDS for all attributes, and
bi-directional sync of password attribute from FDS to eDIR and eDir to
FDS.

I had imagined going in, that this would be as simple as some sort of an
ldapmodify driver from FDS to eDir, but it seems that might have been
too simplistic.  So, anyone have an idea on how I could accomplish this
task, if can even be done, or if I should not waste my time trying?

Regards,

J.Garner
