+it currently seems to fail at the last point, the actual changing of 
+passwords,
+
+I believe the server log file might give more info, however, the type of error 
+looks like a runtime syntax error or something similar. perhaps some local 
+modifications are messing it up (locally: the exact svn code works perfectly). 
+or the ldap user doesn't have rights to actually change other peoples 
+password.
