PGP WDE Bootguard Password not synchronized with Active Directory Account

PGP Whole Disk Encryption does not support single sign-on functionality on Linux  and Mac OS X workstations. What this means for the user is that when you enroll in PGP the first time it will sync with your current password.  However whenever you change your Active Directory password your PGP bootguard password will not automatically be refreshed. To refresh the boot guard password follow the steps below.



1. Open the terminal
2. Run the following command.

pgpwde --change-passphrase --disk 0 --user username --domain 'domainname' --passphrase 'yourpassphrase' --new-passphrase 'yournewpassphrase'
