FW: [Fedora-directory-users] Extracting details from ActiveDirectoryto FDS

Apologies for mailing yet again, however either my messages are not
getting through (something I don''t believe as I keep getting the post
to
the mailing list) - or for some reason, no one is willing to even
acknowledge my issue.
 
In the spirit of the community - can someone at least acknowledge a
message as I find it quite disheartening that I have had no replies at
all even if just to point me somewhere for assistance.

Hi
 
Has anyone had any thoughts on my query or can point me in the right
direction?
 
As is the nature of AD, I would have thought it is possible to extract
this information using a scope setting or something similar.
 
Thanks
 
Darren

	Hi all, 

	I''ve been tinkering with integrating our Linux devices into our
AD domain for some time and I''ve hit a few brick walls, however
I''ve
recently discovered FDS and the synchronisation features with AD.

	I''ve managed to set up a few replication jobs, however due to
the extensive nature of our AD, I''ve realised that the sync only takes
the group and user objects from the OU or CN being specified.

	Is there any way I can specify that it should traverse all
subtrees of an OU and extract all that information back into FDS?

	Thanks 
	
	Darren

Your messages got through - you can confirm by checking the archives  - 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-directory-users/

I''m a new user as well so i''m afraid i can''t answer
your question, but
if you keep asking i''m sure someone will know!

Hi Darren,
As you noticed, the PassSync service isn''t really intended to sync 
arbitrary data from AD to FDS.
Probably most people haven''t yet tried to use it for this purpose, so
no
one has a good answer for you.
Browsing the source code might shed some light as to whether it can be 
made to do what you want.  PassSync is in the fedora-ds source, which 
can be downloaded from:
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Download

Good luck!
