Step f isn't necessary.  And it is usually not necessary to manually 
setup AD for SSL.  If you install the Microsoft Cert System in 
Enterprise Root CA mode, it will usually create and install the AD SSL 
cert automatically.

This link 
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/8.2/html-single/Administration_Guide/index.html#Configuring_Windows_Sync-Install_the_Password_Sync_Service 
explains a bit more about how to set up PassSync to use SSL to talk to 
IPA (i.e. how and where to install the IPA CA cert for use by 
PassSync).  Note that AD itself doesn't talk to IPA - it's only the 
PassSync "AD plugin" that talks to IPA, and only for the purpose of 
sending the clear text password changes from AD to IPA.
