I don't believe this to be possible for a number of reasons.

The script would need to be run by an account that was privileged enough to
be able to:

- set the password on the local account. - fairly simple, could be a domain
account.
- find out when domain account's password has been changed. - would need
sufficient domain privs to access the password last set attribute.
- find out what the password of the domain account is.

The last one is the issue - I do not know how to write a script that I can
run on my own account to tell me what my password is. And that is a good
thing.

Alternately, you could implement a script that accepts a new password and
applies it to the domain and the local account. Not a good idea, though, as
the script could possibly be hacked to save that password somewhere...
