We are looking for a reason/solution to the following problem:
Our campus uses an Exchange server, and we allow users to connect their mob=
ile devices to Exchange to receive their email, and Active Directory to aut=
henticate. In the past few months, we are getting users locked out of their=
accounts, and we have traced it back to their mobile devices using ActiveS=
ync. It 'looks' like their mobile devices are using old passwords. We know =
this because if the user reenters the current password, then the 'locked' i=
ssues stop. SO, are there cached passwords that are being used, and if so, =
where are these stored. We are seeing this on Android devices, and iPads an=
d iPhones. HOWEVER, not all users are affected.
Other items: Around the same time these items started, we implemented a sel=
f serve password management program called PortalGuard. Also, we started wo=
rk on implementing Office 365.
Thank you to any that can offer ideas or solutions!
