ADAM user SetOption, SetPassword having exception HRESULT: 0x80005008

I have problem setting the password for an ADAM user using C#. I used
the SetPassword code given in the Microsoft page, changed several
parameters, but ran into an exception. I wonder if other people have
solved this problem. But I have searched Google groups for a couple
days but still couldn't get a solution.

I copied the code from:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...y/en-us/adam/adam/setting_a_user_password.asp

Then when the program reaches the first call of:

objUser.Invoke("SetOption", ...);

It throws the an exception with the following information:

Message:
Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

BaseException:
Exception from HRESULT: 0x80005008.

Inner Exception:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80005008):
Exception from HRESULT: 0x80005008.

Thank you very much and I appreciate anyone who has any suggestions!

So what was the hotfix that microsoft sent you? I'm trying to perform the same function and am getting the same issue from my web server that is attached to the domain. I run the code locally and I don't have any issues, but when it hits the first SetOption is errors. If you have the name of the hotfix or who you talked to at Microsoft I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
m blackstone
