Thanks for the quick reply Michael. I installed web2ldap 0.16.41, but have not been able to connect via SSL and Bind to my Active Directory test machine (running Microsoft's ADAM server on WinXP, which I have successfully connected/authenticated with over SSL using MS's ldp.exe utility). I am not completely sure I need to do a simple bind, in order to change a user password in Active Directory, when I have both the old and new passwords, given the other comments by Mike in this thread. Does web2ldap have a public SVN or CVS repository where I might view the changes that allow web2ldap to change the unicodePwd in AD, and hence get some hint as to where in the code this magic is happening? This task may be easy for someone with LDAP experience, but I have virtually no experience with LDAP (or AD either).
