How does password change notification service work in Microsoft Identity Integration Server?
Answer:
The management of passwords is a costly and time-consuming process for many administrators. Fortunately, this process has been greatly enhanced with a new feature in MIIS 2003 SP1-the Password Change Notification Service (PCNS). This new service allows for the secure updating of password resets to be sent to an MIIS 2003 server. When a password reset is initiated on a domain controller, either by a user who presses Ctrl+Alt+Del or by an administrator, the request is intercepted. The intercepted request is encrypted and then forwarded on to the MIIS 2003 server and from there to all connected data sources (that are configured for password management) through synchronization. To see how to install the PCNS and configure a management agent.
