Account Lockout not being applied

[shane.pinnell]

I am having a weird problem. I have set the account lockout threshold
to 0 to disable it. Unfortunately, it is not being applied! I also
tried setting it to something higher than five, and the accounts are
still locking out after 5 invalid attempts. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Hi,

As this is a domain level policy first you hav to specify what is ur
setup is a single domain or what

password policy you have to make changes on domain security policy &
check is there any group policy appied to your domain open & checkout
the same.

Are you setting it in the Default Domain Policy? If not, that is why it
isn't working, it can only be set at the domain level currently.

If you are, then it sounds like you may have some replication issues
either in your AD or in FRS.

It was a replication issue! So frustrating!
