[Fedora-directory-users] crypt password with AD ?

[George Holbert]

Unfortunately, the Microsoft AD password hash isn't a supported password 
hash in FDS (or any other directory server, except AD of course).  I 
think this is because Microsoft's hash is proprietary.  This means 
neither SSHA or crypt can directly be synced with AD.
To sync passwords, you have to use something that can catch the password 
while it's in clear text (i.e., when the user changes it).  There is a 
Fedora "Winsync" package which I believe can help with this.
