aspx_professional thread: DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.NativeObject.SetPassword()
I'm having trouble invoking the SetPassword method of a DirectoryEntry
object's NativeObject property.
I've imported the Active Directory Service COM type library into my ASP
page (I'm using C#).
The following line takes the DirectoryEntry object representing a "user"
and retrieves its native ADSI object:
ActiveDs.IADsUser iAdsUser = (ActiveDs.IADsUser) userDe.NativeObject;
Then I simply call the SetPassword method:
iAdsUser.SetPassword("blah");
The userDe object's username and password are set to username and password
of the root domain DirectoryRntry.
Whe I call the SetPassword method I get a COMException: "Logon failure:
unknown user name or bad password."
However I can call ChangePassword() and other methods and properties
without any problems.
Can anyone help, please?
