NetworkCredential - Password changed

Hi

We are using NetworkCredential with Active Dir to validate the user.

The problem we are having is, when the user is required to change his
password at logon (every 90 days) the NetworkCredential call fails.  Its
seems to take about an hour before the password propagates and starts to
work with the NC call. 

Is there a work around?
Is there a way to speed up the  active directory propagate password?

Thanks

Tell your domain controllers to sync sooner??

But, if a user changes their network password, does it also take an  hour
for them to log onto a different workstation?
