Asp.net Membership Lock Out



I am using the standard asp.net membership provider. I have users who
forget their password. They attempt to login 5 times and they get
locked out. The membership configuration in web.config follows.

<add connectionStringName="SomeDB" enablePasswordRetrieval="false"
enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false"
applicationName="SomeApp" requiresUniqueEmail="true"
passwordFormat="Hashed" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5"
passwordAttemptWindow="10" passwordStrengthRegularExpression=""
minRequiredPasswordLength="6" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"
name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider"/>

Once the user is locked out, the reset password doesn't work. I have
to unlock the user before it will send a new password. Is this the
correct operation of this feature? Do I have to manually unlock these
users before they can retrieve a new password?

Thanks.

Rob
