It depends.... If the logon happens after the computer makes the connection to a DC, then the computer account password will update. Some VPN drivers will make a firewall and network connection before the user sees the logon prompt.
Someone should correct me here, but I believe that if you're launching the VPN connection with the user logon, the computer account won't update without manual intervention, such as executing a netdom command once the tunnel is established.
