Verify Password Unreliable

Verify Password Unreliable

The verify password function is proving to be incredibly un reliable.  It works one minute and then it doesn't work.  It will work for some account in a resource and not for others. 

This is becoming quite frustrating.  I'm trying to document how our password admins should be adding resources, testing and resetting passwords and one minute it is fine and everything works then randomly it stops. 

For example I added a windows resource and the local administrator account and force a password reset and it verifies OK.  I then "Discover Accounts" and it adds in two other local accounts.  I reset the password on all of the resource testing the email and this works fine. 

Then I find I cannot verify any of the 3 local account passwords.  I manually reset the local admin password on the server and then input this password into PMP and this verifies OK.  Later it fails verify but if I click the RDP session it autologs me on with the local admin account so clearly we have the correct password. 

I'm running Password Manager on 2012 R2 in a HA configuration with an SQL backend.  IE 11 and Chrome both exhibit the same issue. 

I'm second guessing myself and doubting if I actually set the passwords or not, but I have.  It just randomly decides it can't verify the password.

And all this before I get to the more complex job of setting up password reset with a service restart on successful password reset.
