New accounts added by xmlAPI will not inherit settings from "new Accounts" template

When adding new accounts through the xmlAPI I can't seem to get the settings I want for "Remote Administration" settings. Specifically edit password so the user can change to a different password than the one we create for them.

My first assumption was that ALL new accounts inherited these settings.

I tried to include them in the request (see example) but still no luck.

The account gets created and has some settings per the default template but not the ones I need.

this is my request and response:

Thank you for looking into it,

I took your suggestion and created an "UpdateUser" call after the account was created (somewhat modified) but ran into other problems instead..

some settings changed, the "DontExpirePassword" was NOT set with only create but did set to yes with the update call. The RemoteAdmin properties was empty though when I checked in the GUI even after update and I got an publicfolder warning?
