  The server is unwilling to process the request.

  I am trying to update an attribute in active directory (e.g name).  I got this error when I try to commit my changes.  I tried changing the password for my login account and it worked fine.  I just cant change the other attributes.

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
          {
              var ADService = new ActiveDirectoryServiceTest();
   
              DirectorySearcher mySearcher;
   
              var entry = ADService.GetDirectoryEntry(ActiveDirectoryServiceTest.CompanyName.Whayne);
   
   
              var listOfUser = ActiveDirectoryServiceTest.InitializeSearcher(ActiveDirectoryFiltersTest.GetFilterByUserName("Student01"), entry, out mySearcher);
   
              mySearcher.SearchScope = SearchScope.Subtree;
              mySearcher.CacheResults = false;
              SearchResultCollection resultUsers = mySearcher.FindAll();
   
              Dictionary<String, String> list = new Dictionary<String, String>();
   
              var user = resultUsers[0];
              DirectoryEntry newDir;
   
              foreach (string propName in user.Properties.PropertyNames)
              {
                  ResultPropertyValueCollection valueCollection =
                  user.Properties[propName];
                  foreach (Object propertyValue in valueCollection)
                  {
                      if (!list.Keys.Contains(propName))
                          list.Add(propName, propertyValue.ToString());
                  }
   
   
              }
   
              newDir = user.GetDirectoryEntry();
              var x = newDir.Path;
              newDir.Username = @"Whayne.com\DWADMIN";
              newDir.Password = @"DWadm2007";
              newDir.AuthenticationType = AuthenticationTypes.Secure;
              newDir.RefreshCache();
              newDir.Properties["name"][0] = "TEST";
              newDir.CommitChanges();
   
   
              mySearcher.Dispose();
              entry.Dispose();
              GridView1.DataSource = list;
              GridView1.DataBind();
   
            
   
          }
   
   
   
      }

  Found the answer.... The culprit is that Im using GC:\\ on my directory entry path instead of LDAP:\\

      private const string GcPath = @"LDAP:\\DC=mydomain,DC=com";
