You should still be able to use the Lanman calls, but I've found
sometimes it didn't work (either because of a workstation problem I was
experiencing, bad Karma, or otherwise)..

But..  The OLE way is probably "better" (?) (more correct going forward,
because eventually MS might decide to deprecate LanMan?  Who knows...)

Subject: password changing in pure AD environment


I think I already know the answers to my questions, but I'm double
checking.

Please respond as to the veracity of these statements:

1. Win32::AdminMisc->SetPassword cannot change user passwords in a
"native mode" AD environment.

2. To change a user's password in "native mode", you must get the user
object, change the password attribute (using a SetPassword function
somwhere?), and save the changes?

Please feel free to tell me I'm right, wrong, and/or to include code
examples. I used to use AdminMisc to change passwords in a mixed
environment, but it doesn't appear to be working anymore, and we just
recently changed from mixed to native mode.

Peter
