Mechanisms have been developed for synchronizing information, e.g., password or other access credential information, amongst replicated directory spaces or repositories. In some exemplary realizations, directory spaces are embodied as directory servers, services or similar components of computer operating systems, including LDAP, UDDI, Active Directory or other standardized or proprietary directory environments. In one embodiment in accordance with the present invention, a method includes invalidating an entry of at least one replica store. The invalidation of the entry of the replica store triggers information synchronization of a corresponding invalidated entry of a master store to a corresponding entry of an authoritative store on a next attempt to authenticate against the invalidated entry of the replica store. The method may include propagating information of the synchronized master store entry to at least one other replica store.

Modifications to the spanning tree algorithm allow bad news to propagate quickly by providing that protocol entities on bridges process inferior information sent by the designated bridge for each LAN. In addition, bridges use per port hello timers to stimulate information propagation, setting it to suit local link characteristics. No changes to the format of bridge protocol data units (BPDUs) as specified in the IEEE Standard 802.1D are required, and the algorithm for computing the topology of the network remains unchanged. Techniques have been adopted for expiring information and recomputing the spanning tree upon detection of link failure, upon receipt of a message having a message age greater than its accompanying maximum age, or if the port hello time algorithm detects a loss of link. Rules for propagating information are provided allowing rapid propagation of changes. Finally, techniques for burning out information in a configuration message are adopted.
