Hi
This is my third question today.
Seems like I have run into some problems with AD.
I am using the native IADsUser interface to change the password.

IADsUser dsUser = DirectoryEntry.NativeObject as IADsUser
dsUser.ChangePassword(old, new);

The password gets changed. Alls fine till there.
The trouble comes when I login again. If I use the old password, the error I
get is
"The server is not operational", instead of a "Logon failure " message.
Instead If i use a random string like "abc" to login, I get a correct error
"Logon failure".
Can anyone tell me how to fix the former case.

Thanks and regards
