IIS Digest Authentication and Domain Password Changes



I have a security scenario where people in remote offices change their
passwords then attempt to connect to an IIS-hosted application at my site
before the replication interval. I know that windows polls the PDC emulator
to see if password changes have occurred, however, I wasn't sure if IIS does
the same thing or if it could be configured to do so. Currently we are
using Digest authentication. No realm is specified if that makes a
difference.

I just want to ensure that the remote users don't end up locked-out in the
event that they have changed passwords and get impatient. I also don't want
to force a bunch of unnecessary replication just for an event that occurs
once every 90 days.
