Only a subset of attributes is sync between AD and 389 ds.

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/8.2/html/Administration_Guide/Using_Windows_Sync-Synchronizing_Users.html#sync-users-attr

However by performing ldapsearch request over the AD and ldapmodify on the corresponding entry in 389 ds , you can create a script which merge semi-automatically some other attributes.

 

For password sync, like said by solarflow, the Microsoft hash algorithm can t be used on other system. This is the reason why password sync service only deals with password in plain text format by adding a hook on the password change event.

I meant to say:

 

can't use the windows password hash

I had a similar setup as yours, for #1 I think I did have to use 389 console to enable posix attributes so the user could login to linux, i'm not sure how to make this automatic.  For #2 this is because windows passwords are encrypted differently, and linux can use the windows password hash.


hope this helps..

Hi all,

I have installed a 389ds which sync entries from an Active Directory running on Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Server. Everything works fine even Password Sync. But I have still 2 problems I don't get solved:

1.    It's not possible to sync the UNIX attributes from AD to 389ds. Any hints?
2.    Passwords are not synced during an initial full re-syncronization. Only password changes on an AD are synced. So I have to reset a user's password and after that the password will be transmitted to the 389ds.

Best regards
