I tried logging on with administrator account and I am told the check the password. When I reset the passord to what it was it let's me get in right after resetting it. If I wait more than 5 minutes or so, it doesn't let me in again.
Any input is well appreciated.
Thanks
 
Sounds like something is attempting to authenticate with the wrong credentials. Check the Event logs and see if anything is being logged. This happens to us if a password is changed but a service is left with the old password.
 
I changed the Backupexec service server logon credentilas to another user and the condition evaporated.

Thanks for the assistance.
