Does the Windows Live password synch with the password that the student uses for other university services?
Yes, you can set ILM to pass your school username/password to Hotmail. However, the student has ultimate control over their password and can, if they choose, set a new password. It’s always in the student’s control if they want the same password for email and campus services. In the future we will have a roadmap for federation that support a single credential model for campus services may be interested in our roadmap for federation. Also, we have built an API that should enable your school to provide single sign-on access to Windows Live Hotmail via your student portal.
