Question, DirectoryService Password reset for Local Account. (not

Hey everyone, Im having some issues with my app resetting a users local
account.

They will be accessing the website from a domain account however logging
into the website with a local account. The local account will be reset from
that web application. I have the Following.

string pathname = "WinNT://myMachine/";

DirectoryEntry usr = new DirectoryEntry(pathname);

usr.Username = "test";
usr.Password = "test";

usr.Invoke("SetPassword",new object[]{"test2"});

usr.CommitChanges();
I'm assuming I also need to Disable Anonymous Access from IIS,

any suggestions?
