RE: Re: Sync Domain Account password and Local Account password

Can you setup a VPN between the two sites?  This would allow everyone to
authenticate against the "P"DC.  Maybe a DC in the remote site isn't a
bad idea as well.

Subject: Re: Re: Sync Domain Account password and Local Account password

The issue I have is we have users that need to go to a remote site. (No 

network connection back to head office) The user connects to an isolated


network and then needs to connect to an old application.  The old 

application synchronized ID and Passwords with the domain controller
every 

week and stores the information locally within the old application.  The


Local account ID and password is then checked against the ID and
password 

within the old application. 


One of the issues are that a user may only go to a remote site once a
year 

and the local password is out of sync with the old application.  Our
users 

have a hard time changing their local password hence the reason to 

synchronize the AD ID and password to the local ID and password.


Thank you for all the comments.
