Yes, that's the best way.  You can point passsync at any master 
anywhere, as long as you are prepared to deal with latency issues (e.g. 
if you add a user then immediately change the password, you may have to 
wait for that new user to show up on your local replica first).

The DS MMR protocol will update the password on all other DS servers.
