How do you unlock a local windows 2000 account
(administator) that was locked by too many unsucessful
login attempts?

Thanks
 
Well, by the time you read this, you may have already figured out the
default reset time is something like 30 minutes.
 
I didn't think you could lock the local administrator
account.

Correct. You can't lockout "the" administrator account ever from
interactive/keyboard logon. The passprop utility makes it possible to lock it
out with a network logon. --- Steve
