account lockout problem

I have 4 users that have their accounts locked every hour as we have a
policy in place after 5 failed password attempts. I am troubleshooting this
via the account lockout status utility. What I am able to determine is that
2 of my domain controllers on a seperate subnet receive the bad password
attempts. I have checked the logs and see no replication errors. The 4
accounts get locked every hour. Could this be attributed to a repliaction
issue? I even tried resetting the user's password on one of the subject DCs
but that didn't help. Any ideas?
