Mac Open Directory and Sun Java DS

We have Mac Open Directory Servers running on OSX 10.4.x domain. I am thinking about moving this domain by implementing Sun Identity Management solution. However, I am not able to find the Mac Open Directory in the IDM Supported standards. My Sun Directory Server synchronizes with the Windows AD using IDSYNC but I am not sure how a similar environment can be implemented for Open Directory. Is there a product from Sun for synchronizing accounts with Open Directory from the Sun Java DS?

Mac Open Directory supports the LDAPv3 protocol so you could use Sun IdM's LDAP adapter to manage entries in Mac OD. I would probably set up Sun IdM to perform the synchronization. You configuration would depend on what source was authoritative.

The tough thing is that Active Sync would probably not work for Mac OD so automatically doing a synchronization based on updates in the Mac OD would not be feasible unless you created and Active Sync adapter. If done it before. It's not too difficult.
