Being quite honest, never having had to do it, I do not know either, 
this may help:

You will need to write a script to extract the info from your LDAP 
server and then add this info to your AD,

Or more likely a bash script to get the info and then some form of 
windows script to add it to the server, or perhaps the classicupgrade 
script will work.
