Re: User Account Locked Out!!

This particular user has the local admin privilege,so I don't think any
database connectivity causing the same problem.

As I said instead of logging on to the XP if you first log on to the windows
2000 it will be fine but it will lock the user locking from logging on to the
XP m/c(also the same for other way around).
It's kind of strange problem!!!
I am really getting no idea ?

(OP) Check for ODBC configured connections. Unusual to have Administrator,
but it wouldn't surprise me.

Yes I have reset the password for the particular user account couple
of days
ago using ADUC,since then he can log on to either XP or
2000,whichever he logs on first.

Just make sure any services or accounts have the password changed

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 ?

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
