Using LDAP will not set the SAP users password to the same as the MS AD domain account password. If you want to logon to a SAP system using MS AD password, then you need to use SNC/Kerberos authentication, and not sync passwords. Technically it is possible to sync passwords, but SAP do not encourage it, and it requires code to be installed on each domain controller.

Thanks,

Tim

Idea of the post is not to mislead anyone neither to spam.

Please refer the document titled:

Integration of SAP central user administration with Microsoft Active Directory by

Chris Kohlsdorf, Senior System Architect SAP NetWeaver, REALTECH AG Walldorf André Fischer, Project Manager Collaboration Technology Support Center, SAP AG

published jointly by Realtech AG & SAP for further reference.

Hope you would appreciate the efforts.
