Hi,

I'm looking for way to import username and password into OpenLdap from Active Directory (Windows network). I found pwdump6 could extract the username and password. But the format is not in the LDIF format which you can use to import into openldap. Anybody have experience doing this or have the sript that could convert the pwdump6 output into LDIF format. Even better if anybody have the software that could sync AD to Openldap. Thank in advance for any help or pointer toward achieving the above goal. I'm in the prosess setting up the demo Linux infra for microsoft infra replacement in the long run.

Found out that normally people use smbldap-migrate-pwdump-account to import username &password from pwdump to openldap. But it's failed me. One article said, only works for samba 2.2.4.

No more clue or direction how to proceed with this, I almost giveup. Any guru out there that could help me on this

In this project, I tried to prove that we could live without microsoft, at least on servers' related services. I've already installed openldap, samba, DNS, Web, Wiki and I'm about to move the users to this new infrastructure but .... no go for me at point and getting weaker. Any suggestion or pointer from experienced users out there. I'm just started.

The Samba 3 by Example book might help step you through the process. It is available either from the samba package or a samba-doc package or the samba.org website. Be sure to read through Part II.

Also google for "ldap ibm red book".

Thank for the effort to help. I've gone through The Samba 3 by Example, but the focus is on NT4. I'm looking for importing/sync username & password from Acive Direcory win2000/win2003. Now I'm reading "ldap ibm red book"
