PwdCanChange, PwdLastSet and PwdMustChange can be
tricky. For some reason, and there are bug reports with
regards to this behaviour, the fields of the LDAP user must
be compatible with the Domain Policy (sambaDomainName).
For example, we want to create new users, change
their password and make mandatory a change of password on
the first login, we discovered that the only possible way
to do that (right now) is to change the fields to look
like the password change was one week ago, we do a "field
dance" explained in a thread on this maillist a few days
ago.
Depending on how did you set up the age of the
password, changing the CanChange in the way you are doing
would not work.
