Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am writing several scripts that work with the active directory and users in it. One stumbling block I have found is the inability to set "Users Cannot Change Password" flag. As stated on MS's page (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b305144) the value, in this case 64, cannot be set.

Some searching reveals that it can be set by using ACE's which appear to be usable in perl as well. But, i cannot find any relevant documentation one how to use these in perl. Has anyone tackled this problem before, or know where ACE's (in perl) are documented?

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    This might be a good lead for some info:
