I have a weird problem with a handful of users in the domain. Whenever they login the domain, they're accounts get locked out. not sure why this is happening or how to fix.<br>these users are at a point where they don't logout at night because they won't be able to login without me unlocking the account from the domain manager. RIght after I use UMD to unlock the account, get the user logged in, I can go back to the UMD screen and their account is locked again.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TIA<br><br>
 
Turn on auditing and see what locks the account. I would check to see if the user has any mapped drives that were incorrect.<br><br>Regards<br><br>Lars<br>
 
Could be a corrupted password list file on the local drive. <p>Zel<br><a href=mailto:zel@zelandakh.co.uk>zel@zelandakh.co.uk</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
 
Could be mapped drives authenticating with an expired password.
