Kim,
Sorry for disappearing on you.
Sounds like you have a bunch of stuff going on. I would suggest that you
make sure that you have your A/V software fully patched and that you run a
scan on all of your servers. I might also go to
http://housecall.trendmicro.com and let that run. This can take a couple of
hours so you might want to do it remotely after hours ( or do it and stay
late at the office! ).
You might also want to install the Support Tools on each of your WIN2000
Servers and run both dcdiag /e /c /v and netdiag /v. This will give us some
information that might be very useful. The Support Tools are located on the
WIN2000 Server CD as well as on the WIN2000 Service Pack CD in the Support |
Tools folder. I would go for the Service Pack CD - or download them from
the MS website. There are a bunch of extremely useful tools included in the
Support Tools. I strongly suggest to everyone that they do this - as a
general piece of advice!
I would also suggest to you that you go to the following link and download
the ALTOOLS.exe file:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...9c-91f3-4e63-8629-b999adde0b9e&DisplayLang=en
Create a folder somewhere on your File Server ( or workstation ) and simply
double click the altools.exe and designate the folder that you just created.
Several files/tools will be extracted to that folder. Take a look at
acctinfo.dll and LockoutStatus.exe. These two tools will be very helpful.
Alockout.zip and AlockoutXP.zip might also be very useful. You might want
to read the guide as it has some very useful troubleshooting steps. Is it
possible that you have a password policy in place and that you have used a
user account - such as Administrator or whatever - for some service? It
could also be that you used the Administrator account - or whatever - on
your A/V software on all of the workstations ( I am thinking McAfee here ).
HTH,
Cary
