I've been at this for a while, but it seems like there is no "real" solution for how this is done.
In a perfect scenario, it would be amazing to have openldap and AD able to sync live together... (I am not aware of anyway possible, except maybe
http://acctsync.sourceforge.net/, but that seems incredibly "hacked" together).
For an immediate solution, I have tried the pwdump method (kinda scary using that to export active directory records), and trying to use smbldap-migrate-accounts-pwdump to import those... of course the perl script will not run on any setup I try... (

Can anyone give me an alternative solution? I have looked into hp's metadirectory project. but I'm not sure how that will create the users smb info when they get imported?... anyways, any help would be much appreciated. I'm about to go walk around with a laptop, and just add users manually... eeeeeeeeekkkk!
