Fedora directory users - Jan 2007 - Directory sync with Windows 2003 Server x64

Has anyone had any luck getting Windows 2003 Server x64 edition to sync with
FDS? FDS will successfully pull down new objects from AD, but the passwords
are not synchronized. Also, it appears that passhook.dll isn''t
functioning.
The logfile indicates perpetual waiting for an event. It doesn''t catch
any
password changes that occur. Yes, password complexity is enabled at the
domain level (it is on by default in 2003 x64).

There are a few events in the Application log from Password Synchronization,
but there is no event text. The event ids are mostly 105 and 144.

Thanks,
-richard

Random guess, but do you need a 64-bit version of the passhook dll ?

I''m guessing the problem is along those lines. The installer MSI puts
the
files in the correct locations for 32-bit binaries [syswow64 and program
files (x86)]. Everything appears kosher along those lines, but it''s
just not
working. My fear is that Windows will only let a 64-bit DLL hook password
changes. I''ve found similar information at

Are there any plans to create x64 binaries of the PassSync package?

Thanks,

Dunno, but it''s open source you know, so you could build your own
(assuming
of course that the code is 64-bit clean).
