We have scripts that are currently looking at our Win2003 and grabbing the user passwords via SFU. This is in a Unix crypt format, and it is then stuffed into the local passwd file and httpauth file on our HPUX server. We are attempting to move to FDS and it would be super nice if we could just change a few line of our current scripts to get the password crypts from there instead.

Are my hopes too high?

Perhaps not. This is essentially exactly what the 'passsync' service for the FDS Windows Sync feature does (except it sends the plaintext password over the wire,
SSL protected, and lets FDS do the crypting).

You could modify your existing sctipt (add a call to 'ldapmodify').

You might take a look at the passsync source code for some inspiration on
how to find the entry to modify in the DS, and so on.
