Greetings all,
I have a strange situation. I have 2 users only of about
75 that keep getting their accounted locked out. Happens
every day, typically after 4-5 hours of working atleast
or so it seems. They don't have bad password attempts, I
have tried to reset the account, expire the pwd and
change it, then the user would create a new password and
the following day at some point, while working, it would
lock her account.
It is a Win2000 network, 3 DC's, 1 of which is across a
T1 link. Both users are in the same OU. No one else in
that OU has issues, nor across the entire organization. 2
servers including the PDC are at SP4, the one across the
WAN link is at SP3. One person is typically only at one
computer while the other is often at 2 at the same time.
Any ideas what could be going on? The event logs seem
fine, no errors. She also mentioned this all started up 2
months ago after her password had expired.
As I type this, she mentioned it locked her out. I
searched the entire Event Viewer logs and only found her
account referenced for printing. This time she did
deliberatly put her password wrong 1 time, with 5 being
the point before lock out.
