Yes.  There are two different connections.  The main connection is from 
FDS to AD - FDS does an LDAP BIND to AD to issue a sync request.  When 
you configure the windows sync agreement on FDS (usually using the 
console), you have to specify the DN of the user on AD that has 
administrative rights over the AD subtree (e.g. 
cn=Administrator,cn=Users,dc=Domain,dc=TLD).  So you will have to do 
some work to create that user on AD, grant that user the appropriate 
rights over the AD subtree, and figure out what the DN of that user is.

The other connection is a "push" connection from AD to FDS for password 
changes.  The passsync AD plug-in intercepts password changes and 
forwards them to FDS.  When configuring the AD passsync service, you 
will need to specify the DN of an FDS user that has the right to search 
for and write the userPassword attribute in the subtree you are sync'ing.
