Hi,
I tried to reset the password. Using setPassword. But I changed using the old password.
PrincipalContext PrincipalContext = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ADSServerIP"].ToString(), userpath);
UserPrincipal User = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(PrincipalContext, userid);
User.ChangePassword(strOldPassword, newpassword);
