I had something similar recently, but it was just one user and NT4. The user had mapped a drive on another PC with his user name & password to a drive on a server, he had subsequently changed his password, but the other PC was still trying to re-connect the mapped drive each time using the old credentials and locking out the account.

Take a look at the following resources
