Hi I have a user who keeps getting locked out. he is sure he is not logged
in anywhere, not running as a service, and has not changed his password in a
month or open terminal sessions. Any ideas to follow.


Thank you,

Juan
 
Turn on auditing and chase the audit messages. Something is sending bad
passwords to the DCs.
 
Juan,

You can also turn on netlogon logging on the DC's to capture the account
being locked out and where the lockout is coming from. To enable the logging
run the following from a command prompt.

nltest /dbflag:2080ffff

Then cycled the netlogon service and wait for the lockout to occur and parse
through the netlogon.log files and see where it is coming from.
