Yes, ldbedit is the easiest, you just get the AD object open in your 
editor, change the contents of the 'profilePath' attribute and save

ldbmodify is a bit different, you need to create an ldif

dn: <full AD object ldap path>
changetype: modify
replace: profilePath
profilePath: <new profile path>
-

then use ldbmodify to carry out the change
