Thanks I applied both methods on article 279723 plus article 294952 and still
no access. The correct permissions are on the security group, the user I
added to the security group still cannot do anything with account unlock or
password reset. Where can I see the effective permissions of the user since
they are a memeber of this security group? The securty group is a memeber of
the built-in Account operators as well. Is there default deny on regular
users accounts that is blocking this? Any help in what this could be would
be appreciated. Thanks
