The account is running on two different m/c's(one is a XP and the other
2000).
Let me run the tool(eventcombMT.exe).
I am assuming the lock out is caused by nework mapped drive.
Once I ran this tool how can I solve this issue cause this user has to run
his profile
on these 2 m/c's ?

on the same machine? A user could have mapped drives to a resource from
one
machine, on a different machine he changes his password and then the
first
machine attempts to stay mapped to a drive and the password is no longer
correct and eventually locks the user out. Or after a password is
changed a
service is running that attempts to authenticate with an old password.

To help try and track down where the account is getting locked out use
eventcombMT.exe from the Account Lockout tools found out Microsoft's
website. Use the built in search AccountLockouts and search in the
created
text files for the user in question.

Hi All,

I am having a small problem with the one of the user accounts.
This particular user log on to two different PC's one running on XP and
the
other running on 2000.

The problem strats occuring whenever you have to change the password
after
42 days(default).Once he changed the password in one m/c, he has been
locked
out to log on to the other m/c(2000).

thanks

mil
