!!! Overview
Okay. The title is a little weird. (Old info ~ 2009-12-23)
The problem was that the current RACF driver (3.52) does not support setting a password when the user is created.
The good news, the next release of the driver, which should be soon, will.
Shows a [DirXML Example] and [XPATH Example].

We have on occasion needed to [Convert DirXML Document] from one form to another.
!! Details
Back the the issue. We have a add document that looks like this:
{{{
<input>
<add class-name="User" event-id="plux0884#20091217161122#99#57" qualified-src-dn="dc=com\dc=willeke\OU=users\CN=GDR109" src-dn="\willekeIDV-LAB\com\willeke\users\GDR109" src-entry-id="42696">
<add-attr attr-name="willekeRACFAccount">
<value timestamp="1258656672#59" type="state">true</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="willekeRacfDefaultGroup">
<value timestamp="1258656671#126" type="string">DEPTGFR</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="willekeTargetIDMUser">
<value timestamp="1261066756#13" type="state">false</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="willekeUcode">
<value timestamp="1258656671#130" type="string">U9G004</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="Login Disabled">
<value timestamp="1258656671#111" type="state">false</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="nspmDistributionPassword">`
<value timestamp="1258984340#10" type="string">Mickey</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="preferredName">
<value timestamp="1258656671#7" type="string">aldo2</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="Surname">
<value timestamp="1258656671#21" type="string">Stellato2</value>
</add-attr>
<add-attr attr-name="workforceID">
<value timestamp="1258656671#6" type="string">GDR109</value>
</add-attr>
<password>password4User</password>
<operation-data op-sourceDN="\willekeIDV-LAB\com\willeke\users\GDR109"/>
</add>
</input>
}}}
Note: the current driver will put the <password> element in the document, when you set the destination password, it just does not do anything with it.
We need to end up with a document that looks something like this:
{{{
<modify-password class-name="User" event-id="plux0884#20091217161122#99#57xx" src-dn="\willekeIDV-LAB\com\willeke\users\GDR109">
<association>\willekeIDV-LAB\com\willeke\users\GDR109</association>
<password>password4User</password>
</modify-password>
}}}
