Password changes are handled by the server that logged you on and then
"pushed" to the PDC emulator FSMO role holder

There is some good info on this in:

232690 Urgent Replication Triggers in Windows 2000
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=232690

225511 New Password Change and Conflict Resolution Functionality in Windows

| The change takes place on the server that authenticated the user. (I'm 99%
