I asked our AD admins to install PassSync for testing and they refused as they claim that it holds the service password in the registry in clear text. Anybody know anything about this?

Yes, the password for the replication bind DN configured in
Fedora 
Directory Server must be stored in the registry on the
domain 
controller.  Why not just restrict access to the specific
registry key 
that contains the password to the "Administrator"
user?
