RE: [ActiveDir] Change a password over PPTP Windows Domain
You could disable account caching and force them to log on to the laptop via PPTP before authenticating to the machine. Of course this would now allow them to log on to the computer if they had no way to connect to the RRAS Server. Solves one problem but creates another one.

RE: [ActiveDir] Change a password over PPTP Windows Domain
After they change their password but before disconnecting from the PPTP VPN, ask them to lock and unlock their computer using the new password. This should update the cached credentials with the new password. Let us know if it works; have a great day!
