Password changes are replicated immediately.  However, the attribute for
password expires follows normal replication procedures. So you get a
confusing lag.
  
Seen the exact same thing at our help desk.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Password changes and password must change


Folks:

I've gotten some calls from our help desk where they are resetting passwords
for our users.  When a user calls in to have their pwd changed, they reset
the pwd for the user and then verify that "password must change on login" is
checked.  When the user logs in, the new pwd is in effect but the "password
must change on login" is not being enforced.  Later when the user logs in,
they are forced to change their pwd (again).

I'm assuming that it's a combo of replication delays between the new pwd
being enforced and of the "password must change on login" attribute.

We are at Win2K SP2SRP1 AD native mode for user accounts.  Workstations are
still in the NT 4.0 sp6a resource domains and a mix of Win2K, NT and Win9x.

Anyone have any insights?
