There is also a setting to synchronize the local machine password to the domain
supported password. Is that selected? (It may be user accessible at password
change time.)

I have the same problem on two XP Pro SP3 machines that are not on a domain.
Occasionally, after the screensaver comes on, entering the password does not
allow me back in. I also notice that if I try to type the userna in again it
appears to be scrambled (random, letters numbers and special characters).
The only resolution is to reboot.

I just saw another one recently. In the (post lock) login screen, open
the advanced dialog and verify that the correct domain is being
addressed.
