I installed the Windows password sync from the 389DS project on our DCs and it 
works with the Sun/Solaris/Java directory server just fine.  It should work 
with any LDAP server.

However:
1. The Windows DCs will be the master of the passwords.  Users will need to 
change their passwords in that environment.
2. It must be installed on all DCs as you never know which DC the Windows 
client will send the change to.
3. You may need to adjust the parameters of the module by editing the registry 
after installation.  The default attributes did not suit our needs.  We use 
the UID attribute for the LDAP equivalent of the Windows SamAccountName attribute.
