I have a very simple problem, I am sure it has been solved
many times already. Here is the problem

When ever a user changes his/her password in the Active
Service Directory, I want this to be reflected in the
user's Registery.

How can I do it ? Do I need to write a script or Is there
ant other way ?

Help please.
 
Under Registry, you are refearing to local SAM account or to any registry
key, that you want ?
There is no built mechanism to write the password that you change in AD to a
local registry of a user. I think that doing so would be dangerous, as
someone could obtain your user password. You can technicaly do this by
writting your own ADSI script which changes user password in AD and then
writes this value to your key in local registry. Check out TechNet script
center for sample scripts

I want to change the registry key of Software not local
SAM account.

Regrads.
 
Then you still have to write your own script to change password for the user
and then on password change store it to the local registry on the machine.
See the link that I provided. All the code is there.
