Hi,

I’m developing a MS Active Directory plug-in to replicate users and passwords to OpenLDAP

The main objective is improve migration from MS AD to OpenLDAP

Have anyone interest on this?

Yes, absolutely.

This project can make part off OpenLdap solution or not?

Sure.

I don't believe you need to write a special plugin to retrieve passwords from AD; MS already has a password sync plugin.

All that's needed is to write a small module for slapd that reads these sync messages.

Maybe it is a trivial job after all!
