This error usually results from a permissions problem. Check the permissions on the account you are using for your BizTalk Host Instance, or in your Authentication Override.
To diagnose, try the operation again using an account with administrator permissions.
Yes. ActiveADAPTER is available as a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) service. So with or without BizTalk Server, you can query and update Active Directory with ActiveADAPTER
ActiveADAPTER WCF exposes essentially the same functionality as our Active Directory Send and Receive Adapters.
ActiveADAPTER WCF services can be consumed by BizTalk Server, but BizTalk Server is not required.

The Send Adapter commits changes per message and per object. This means commits cannot span messages. Within a message, changes to an object are all committed together. To ensure changes are all or nothing, therefore, the strategy you need to use is one message per object.
Here is an example of one of dozens of high ROI BizTalk applications you can build with ActiveADAPTER.
Suppose Jane is a new hire in your organization.
At the end of the hiring process, HR notify IT operations of Jane's start date. A member of IT Operations (with no Active Directory knowledge) goes to your Service Desk system, raises a new ticket, and completes a simple form about Jane's role in your organisation.
From the information entered, the Service Desk system creates an xml file and submits it to BizTalk. BizTalk uses the information in the message and ActiveADAPTER to:
On Jane's first day BizTalk uses ActiveADAPTER to enable Jane's account and emails the first-use password to her Manager at 8am.
On arrival, Jane is given her first-use password and logs on with access to everything she needs.
