The password synchronization ONLY works with encryption, because windows 
won't let you synchronize passwords over an unencrypted connection.
Installing the certificate on the AD server is a bit tricky. It has to 
be in a special format. The procedure for securing Active Directory is 
described in a Microsoft document. The Fedora part is described in the 
RedHat Directory Server Administrator's Guide.
