If I have a Linux workstation which is using AD for the authentication provider.
If I change my password using a Windows machine, what then happens when I log into Linux

SSSD only ever authenticates against the cached credentials if the authentication server
(AD DC here) is not reachable. If it is reachable, the new password would be used and
cached in place of the old password.
