We had this problem when we first rolled out W2K. I believe it was something
to do with outlook authenticating multiple times. We upped the lockout limit
to 6 and the problem vanished.

Hi,

 

Has anyone ever experienced this before?

 

I have two users that have been getting locked out while already logged onto
the network. I also watched another user enter their password incorrectly
just one time and get locked out. Our account policy has a three failed
attempts before lockout rule. They are all on Windows 2000 Pro workstations
and we are using Windows 2000 servers. Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Paul.

 

 

By the way should we be using this list or the Tropicana list?
