Ok, so I assume when they log into their laptops,
that they log on with a domain account -- and they
are changing the password at the domain level?

Is there anything in the event logs for these users -- i.e.
audit authentication failures?

Also, I know that occasionally I map drives to a server
and check the option to reconnect at logon and to use specify the
username and password to connect with (usually due to needing
to map with another account)... Could there be something like
this that has the account info as well?

Other than that, I haven't had any new brainstorms yet as to
causes of this...

Does this happen to everyone when they change their password,
or only some people?  I'd start looking into things that the
users have in common and what would be authenticating with
AD that might have old passwords stored....

Thanks for your help Tim. I had approached the problem from this angle and
didn't get anywhere because my clients are not running services with stored
passwords. If anyone has any suggestions they will like to throw out that
will be great

Thank you all
