does Microsoft include a synchronization plugin to RHDS? They do have
a synchronization package between different servers (sql and possibly
other ldap servers) into AD, but iirc not free (sorry, I forgot its
name, I saw it in the pile of cd/dvds we get from MS just in case we
bite and use it :-) ).

The synchronization between RHDS and Windows AD is as far as I see it,
just like the one from 389 directory server:
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:WindowsSync ; if there
is a supported module for freeipa, then great. Otherwise, one can
always try to get it working on its own.

Or am I absolutely wrong about this?
