AD-joined, network account
The password change will apply. Users should be able to authenticate with their new password without issue.
Non-AD-joined, local account
The password change will not apply. Users may want to update their local user account password via System Preferences>Users & Groups to match their AD password.
Non-AD-joined, local account, FileVault-encrypted
Same as non-FV, password should sync to PreBoot
AD-joined, mobile account (cached creds)
The password change will apply, only after the Mac has been connected to a network with AD (via campus or VPN). In testing, this is effectively immediate, but can take some time (login to Mac, change password, connect to VPN, open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock pane with new password).
AD-joined, mobile account (cached creds), FileVault-encrypted
Above applies, but after restart, PreBoot may require old password and will not forward to logged-in state (user will be dropped into login window and have to enter new username/password).
To get in sync, enter these commands:
sudo fdesetup list | grep jcarberr #substitute jcarberr for the shortID of the user out of sync
It will return:
jcarberr,27E97FDA-252E-1D28-97E2-E11278DB2D21
then copy the long UUID and enter:
diskutil apfs changePassphrase disk1s1 -user 27E97FDA-252E-1D28-97E2-E11278DB2D21
You will be prompted for the old password and the current password.
