LDAP to AD

[Angel]

Hello all - I have a LDAP service running on a NT4 box (not a mbr of my AD
domain), I'd like to extract the users/attributes from that LDAP service and
populate my AD domain with those users and attributes (the user accounts in
LDAP will go into AD and the attributes for those users will go into SQL
Server 2000 database). Does anyone know of a tool or how I can go about
doing this? (the SQL server is a mbr of the AD domain)

MS didn't have an LDAP group but if someone knows of a way for me to extract
the data from LDAP into a whatever format and do this sort of mapping in
AD - I'd appreciate the sharing of knowledge - Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure what LDAP service you're running on NT4, but if you can figure
out how to export users to LDIF, the ldap interchange format, you could
import them into AD that way.

I'm not sure why you'd want to store the attributes on a SQL database, AD is
a database,and holds attributes of all the objects in the database.

Thanks J,
We're going to use AD to handle authentication only and SQL to handle the
data - SQL does a better job with less overhead.
