"Enabling" an already enabled user account?



Hi,

I'm running a fairly small domain, and have an issue I can't resolve.

I've got a user that tries to access a shares\printers on one of the
domain controllers. She gets the error "Logon failure: account
currently disabled." I look in the AD Users and computers and her
account is active. When I point her to a 2nd DC she can connect with
out issue.

I've tried actually disabling the account and then re-enabling and with
no change? The event log has nothing specific to the cause, just some
symptomatic stuff like it can't process GPO. The only difference
between the the day she could log in and the next when she couldn't is
that several Office product updates occured that night.

I should mention that other users can log into the affected workstation
and then connect to the shares on both DCs with out incident.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.
