Hello,
I'd like to know if it is possible to encrypt a user's password in Active
Directory's format, and then import it into this user's Active Directory
account ?
Given our particular situation, we probably won't be able to interconnect
the central ldap unix server nor the specific application used for managing
our accounts. Therefore, we're studying the solution to create the accounts
in active directory and syncing passwords in one way only, by receiving it
already encrypted and ready for import.
Management application for account creation --> Central unix ldap server
with password encrypted in SHA2

v
Active Directory
Do you know it that is possible ?
Aren't there some difficulties with AD's encryption format ? (is it open ?)
>From what I've read (
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;269190), my wish is
not listed as a solution but maybe someone here can confirm it's impossible
?
Regards,
