Importing data?

Hi,

University of Bergen is setting up a unix/linux Kerberos realm to handle 
logons on our unix/linux clients and servers (about 1500).  Our problem 
is that all 30.000 users needs principals on the KDC, and we'd rather 
not have to run all of them through having to type their password 
somewhere.

They're all in AD (and in NIS), can anyone advice as to a good path to
duplicate data over, including passwords?  LDAP export and import and
then using Heimdal's support for having an LDAP backend is the next 
thing I'll try - any better ideas out there?  Google gives me nothing
which doesn't involve having to reenter all user passwords, but we
can't be the first large setup to have this issue?
