How to create User in the specific group in Microsoft Active Directory

Question

Hi,
I am using Nestcape LDAP, and want to create user in the user defined group. I have created a new user group "TestUsers" in the "Users" container of Active Directory, I want to add the new user to Test Users group But my problem is that whenever I create a new user
it get added to Domain Users group.
I tried adding memberOf attribute with value "TestUsers"
attr = new LDAPAttribute("memberOf", "TestUsers");          
attrs.add(attr);
It gives me following error :
code= 53 Exception 0000209A: SvcErr: DSID-031A0D6F, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0
Following is the code I am using.
public LDAPResult createUserID(
String userId,
String pwd,
String pId,
boolean resetonLogOn,
LDAPConnection ldCon) {
boolean flag = false;
int code=0;
try {
String pwdLastSetVal;
String desName;
String desc;
/* Specify the DN of the new entry. */
String dn =
"CN=" + userId + ",CN=" + this.container + "," + this.baseDN; // container = "Users"
/* Create and add attributes to the attribute set. */
String objectclass_values[] =
{ "top", "person", "organizationalPerson", "user" };
// LDAPEntry findEntry=null;
/* Create a new attribute set for the entry. */
LDAPAttributeSet attrs = new LDAPAttributeSet();
/* Attribute sAMAccountName */
LDAPAttribute attr = new LDAPAttribute(LDAP_SAM_KEY, userId);
attrs.add(attr);
/* Attribute unicodePwd */ // LDAP_PASSWORD_KEY = "unicodePwd"
attr =
new LDAPAttribute(
LDAP_PASSWORD_KEY,
(byte[]) this.encodePassword(pwd));
attrs.add(attr);
/* Attribute Display Name */
desName = userId + ":" + pId;
//desName = userId ;
attr = new LDAPAttribute(LDAP_DIS_NAME_KEY, desName);
attrs.add(attr);
/** Attribute userAccountControl to enable the userid.
attr = new LDAPAttribute(LDAP_ACCOUNT_KEY, LDAP_ACCOUNT_EN_VAL); // LDAP_ACCOUNT_EN_VAL= "548"
attrs.add(attr);
/* Attribute pwdLastSet to reset the password on first logon*/
if (resetonLogOn == true) {
pwdLastSetVal = "0";
} else {
pwdLastSetVal = "-1";
attr = new LDAPAttribute(LDAP_RESET_KEY, pwdLastSetVal);
attrs.add(attr);
/* Attribute Description */
desc = " Account Created by HelpNow App";
attr = new LDAPAttribute(LDAP_DESC_KEY, desc);
attrs.add(attr);
/* Attribute objectclass */
attr = new LDAPAttribute("objectclass", objectclass_values);
attrs.add(attr);
attr = new LDAPAttribute("memberOf", "TestUsers");          
attrs.add(attr);
/* Create an entry with this DN and these attributes . */
LDAPEntry myEntry = new LDAPEntry(dn, attrs);
/* Add the entry to the directory. */
ldCon.add(myEntry);
flag = true;
}catch (LDAPException e) {
flag = false;
code=e.getLDAPResultCode();
}catch (Exception e) {
flag = false;
code=LDAPException.OTHER;
}finally {
ldaprs.flag=flag;
ldaprs.code=code;
return ldaprs;
}
