Yeah I knew that the passync utility would only communicate with 1 server. 
I'm not too worried about password sync for our new IdM server until it 
actually replaces the old server.
I just didn't know how Windows would handle having multiple CA certs and if it 
would get cranky because of it. Last thing I want to do is have users coming to 
complain about the passwords not syncing.

Thanks for the input guys, I'll give it a shot to see how it goes.

Right.  passsync can talk to only 1 IdM server.

To use multiple CA certs, just use the certutil tool to install an 
additional CA cert as per the docs.
