Stop Windows Domain Environment Caching Old Passwords?
- by Daryl Gill
I have noticed on my domain environment; the old Administrator password (before password expire).. The client machines have cached the old password and have the ability to bypass the new password by entering the old one..?

Basically; I'm running a UAC enabled domain, which needs the administrator password to continue basic stuff; installations and such. The password for the administrator account has been changed due to expiration of said accounts password. By accident a fellow administrator typed the old password and still bypassed the UAC with what should have been the incorrect password.
Is this a bug with the environment? or something that needs to be tweaked in the server sided settings?
