There must be a service or something that's trying use that username.
Can you try renaming the account and see if it still happens?

Subject: [windows2000] Account Weirdness... :)



This is more of an NT4 problem, but it's Friday.  I figure most of you
want something to do other than work anyways.

I've got one user, who has an account in an NT4 domain and is having
problems.  Their account gets locked out no matter what I do.  No one is
trying to log into the account (according to the security logs on the
DC's), and this happens even with his workstation shut off.

On my end I unlock his account, and the next time I go into the
properties it's locked out again.  No attempts to login show up in the
logs.  This happens even if I disable the account, the locked out box
will be checked next time I go into it.  Sometimes there is a delay
before the account gets locked out again, maybe 10 seconds or so.  If I
sync the domain controllers in between checking the account it's always
locked out.  I figured maybe my DC was funky, I've restarted the net
logon process on the BDC and completely restarted the PDC machine.  It
even happens when I stop the net logon process on the BDC and just leave
the PDC running.

Any clues?  I'm totally lost on this one.  :)

Thanks,
Aaron
