MOSS 2007 Profile Import Tool now available at http://www.codeplex.com/SPToolbox

The Profile Import Tool is designed to import users and update their profile properties in MOSS 2007 when forms based authentication is used rather than integrated Windows authentication. The tool was cleverly developed by Steve Peschka (SharePoint Ranger) and Ron Tielke (Senior Consultant with Microsoft Consulting Services) in that it uses ASP.NET 2.0 built-in classes to get a list of all users for a membership provider as well as the list of their profile properties, but if the membership provider doesn’t support the GetAllUsers method or if the SQL Profile Provider isn't being used, the tool provides an option for custom code to inherit the base class and override the appropriate methods (returning a list of all users or returning a list of all properties for a specific user).

The tool is available as a free download as part of the SPToolbox open source project at http://www.codeplex.com/SPToolbox.

Isn't this a duplicate of a codeplex tool already written by Sahil Malik at www.codeplex.com/mossprofileimport?

This is great, but does this only work with SQL and .NET authentication? Does this tool work when using FBA and AD authentication?
