Hello, I am trying to figure out why the following script fails on Windows Server 2012 RC. $Group = [ADSI]"WinNT://localhost/Administrator,user" $Group.Invoke("SetPassword","WnSrv12**2") The error that I get is: Exception calling "Invoke" with "2" argument(s): "The specified network password is not correct. The same script works on Windows Server 2008 R2. Can someone help? Thanks!

Hi Vik, If the account is already logged in and authenticated you can try the following syntax: user.Invoke("SetPassword", new object[] {newPwd}); Kind Regards, Martin If you find my information useful, please rate it. :-)

Martin, I tried your syntax and got the same error. DirectoryEntry admin = new DirectoryEntry("WinNT://localhost/Administrator,user"); String password = "adRR32l."; admin.Invoke("SetPassword", new object[] { password }); admin.CommitChanges(); Dave - I didn't know that there is a forum for Windows 2012. Thanks for pointing me to it.
