Ok this may be far fetched..but we have users who swear
that they type in the correct password.. but we know they
arn't cause it wouldn't lock them out of thier account if
they were.. is there a software program that will display
what the user last typed in when there account locks. I
am sick of arguing with the users when they tell me it
must be the system and that they DID type there password
in correctly. Does anyone else have any suggestions?.
this is a real problem, or is this just a way of life??

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately no.

Actually, scratch that "unfortunately" part up there. Such a utility is
called a "password sniffer", and if it worked then it wouldn't say much
about the security of your network. :-)

That's one of those cases where you just live with the PEBCAK and be as
diplomatic as possible.
