Make sure he is not logged onto some other machine on the domain with the old password. If he was logged on at work while he changed the password at home, the machine at work will lock out the acocunt.

He's probably still logged in somewhere else. If auditing is properly enabled, your AD security log should show where...or just reboot every workstation in the domain. Middle of the business day is a good time for this.
