SYMPTOMSAfter you change a user's domain password in User Manager for Domains, the user may be able to gain access to a Web-based program running on Internet Information Server (IIS) version 4.0 using the old password. CAUSE
When you change a user's password in User Manager for Domains, it takes about 5-15 minutes for the old password to stop working. The new password begins to work immediately, so for a 5-15 minute interval, both passwords can be used to gain access to the Web site. Both passwords work on any Web browser running on any computer. This behavior occurs because user token information is cached for up to 15 minutes by default. RESOLUTIONTo work around this behavior, you can restart the server on which you changed the password. STATUSThis behavior is by design. Additional query words:
