Does anyone have any recommendations on products or information on synchronizing data from a SQL database to AD. For example, we want to synch data from the HR database to the users account.

Thanks in advance

HP also offers a product called LDSU (lightweight
directory synchronization utility) which, although relatively unknown, is very
mature and is used in many fortune 500 IT shops.  http://h20219.www2.hp.com/services/cache/11215-0-0-225-121.html

Synchronizing AD



You could use MIIS (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/miis2003/default.mspx) which
is a fully functional meta-directory solution from Microsoft or there is
another tool called SimpleSync (http://www.cps-systems.com/simplesync/) which
I believe will provide you simpler but similiar
functionality.   I prefer to use MIIS however it is costly, and
perhaps overly complex for your particular situation.

We were looking at MIIS for a while. In the end I just sat down and wrote
some .net code custom for the environment. Took me a few days, works great.
Does sync from HR and Sun LDAP to AD right now, going to add legacy student
information and some other systems once I find someone to give me access.



Thanks,
Brian Desmond

I have some perl code that reads user information from some
Oracle tables, and updates the corresponding user objects in AD (phone numbers,
address, etc). It does not create new users (although I do have some other code
for that), not does it sync changes made in AD back to the Oracle
tables.

It's yours if you want it.

Thanks to everyone for the information. I have several routes to
look at now.

Thanks again.

Hello,

Endeed, MIIS 2003 is great to sync multiple databases with each others,
but see what you REALLY need in your sync, because MIIS costs 12 000$/processor
!! We are about to buy it 'cause we have to sync lots databases with AD, and we
need complex codes in our environnement: miis works  with vb.net and c#
code.
If you tend to use MIIS *ONLY* to sync MSSQL -> AD, with light codes,
i think it is better to use other scripts that can connect to SQL,
dump the users, and create/update them in AD.
Regards,

Yann
