Importing User from AD???

I have been tasked to implement ADAM, and to synchronize it with Active
Directory.(ADAM and AD are not on the same server)

Host for Active Directory: testad.cops/catsdcgc001
Port: 389
BaseDN: DC=testad, DC=cops

I have created an instance on ADAM ADSI Edit tool and extended the
schema using ldifde commands as:

ADAM/> ldifde -I -f ad_schema.ldf -s localhost:389 -k -j .
-c "CN=Configuration,DC=X" #ConfigurationNamingContext

ADAM/> ldifde -I -f schema_metadata.ldf -s localhost:389 -k
-j . -c "CN=Configuration,DC=X" #ConfigurationNamingContext

At this point I have no clue what should I do. I have users in active
directory and want to import then in ADAM. Canonical name of object
where user sits is "testad.cops/Cops/Development/HBSASB".

Now the question is, do I have to create containers in ADAM as exactly
as it is in AD?(e.g:testad.cops/Cops/Development/HBSASB)

Secondly, lets assume I use adamsync.exe, how and what should I write
in <source-ad-partition>, <target-rdn> and <base-dn> attributes of xml
file (conf_public.xml)?

Please help me out of this situation.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
