Running Windows 2003 Server, Identity Management for Unix.

Password changed on the Windows 2003 Server system via AD Users &* Computers
works fine. Password change propagates to Unix NIS side.
But when I change a password from a workstation in the domain the password
change only affects the Windows side...and never propagates to the Unix NIS
side.

Anyone have any answers for this one?

How many domain controllers are there in this domain? Do they all run
PSYNC?

It's Password Synchronization component that takes care of syncing
Windows password with NIS passwords. It can be added from the same OC
category as Server for NIS. Is it installed on all these three DCs?

Ok Thank's, but in the process viewer i can't see any Psync process.

I have Nis Server and Password Synchro on one DC and only password synchro
on the Two other.

We don't install on Unix Server the Pam Synchro so the only way to
synchronyze password is from windows client.

Please get in touch with me using by blog on MSDN - http://blogs.msdn.com/sfu
I think someone needs to work on your DCs to get this sorted out.
