mkpasswd: [5] Access is denied.

I have been unable to successfully run mkpasswd -d since our corporation
upgraded to MS Exchange 2000. When I run
mkpasswd -d
I get the following output
SYSTEM:*:18:544:,S-1-5-18::
Administrators:*:544:544:,S-1-5-32-544::
mkpasswd: [5] Access is denied.
I suspect this is caused by some problem with the configuration of the
domain controller, but I don't know enough about domain controllers to
guess any more than that.
The problem is preventing me from using sash to log in remotely to my machine.
I've attached the output of running
strace --output=mkpasswd.strace.txt mkpasswd -u canning -d
to this message. I have been unable to interpret this output enough to
figure out what is causing the problem. If anyone can figure out what is
causing the problem, and suggest what might be done to fix it, I would be
grateful.
thanks,
Peter Canning
PS: mkgroup -d works fine.
