Microsoft Password Change Notification Service available for download

Microsoft has released a Password Change Notification Service and it is now available for download from the Microsoft Download Center. This tool synchronizes user passwords across multiple identity stores in an enterprise environment.

These components simplify password management in organizations with multiple user identity repositories.
