Re: Mysterious Account Lockout

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Hi
This generally happens when the user changed its password, then it has a
service or session, mapped drive, etc... trying to authenticate whith the
old password, wich will cause the account to lockout.
Check at MS website accountlockuot tools to help you track this problem.

I have a user whos account continues to get locked out of the Windows 2003
domain. We have enabled debugging on the netlogon server service on all
domain controllers in hopes the netlogon logfiles would show the account
lockout event...but the logfiles don't log the account lockout event for
some
reason. 1. Should the netlogon.log file show account lockout events, if
yes, what should the DBFlag value be set at? 2. Is there a better way
(than
sifting netlogon.log) to find out who or what is locking out the account
in
question?

Thank You..
