    Most of the values are easy to update via CFLDAP, but password is not.

    I have tried and tried and tried and tried to change passwords via CFLDAP on Active Directory and I just cannot make it work.

    Other LDAP systems seem to have no issue with it, but the way you need to pass the password value to AD seems unreproducable with CFLDAP. It involves encoding the password in a special way while peforming ancient satanic rituals, sacrficing a goat, and swining a dead cat over your head.  It's not pretty.

    If you can figure it out, I would love to here it. But I have consulted with many of the best minds in CF and spent hours on it and I could not figure it out.  I have submitted a bug report (Go vote for it).

    I ended up using JLDAP for my solution.

    I checked the adobe docs and they do not provide an example for what you want to do.  However, when I googled "cfldap action=modify" I found the answer lickety split.
