RE: [ActiveDir] Turn off account lockout feature on a account.

Title: Message

Exchange 5.5 uses a standard NT user account with rights assigned to it as a system account.  So it is susceptible to account lockout policies, unless you use administrator.   Exchange 2000 changed to using the local system.   Todd Myrick   -----Original Message----- From: Rick Kingslan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 08, 2003 2:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Turn off account lockout feature on a account.   'system account' what?  Not following you here, Rick.....   Rick Kingslan  MCSE, MCSA, MCT Microsoft MVP - Active Directory Associate Expert Expert Zone - www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of rick reynolds Sent: Friday, August 08, 2003 12:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Turn off account lockout feature on a account. system account ----- Original Message ----- From: Myrick, Todd (NIH/CIT) To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 9:54 PM Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Turn off account lockout feature on a account.   Thanks Joe,   Just wanted to know if there might be someone who figured it out.   Damn Exchange 5.5!   Toddler   -----Original Message----- From: Joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 11:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Turn off account lockout feature on a account.   Unfortunately this is not possible from anything I have ever seen.   Be tricky and try to figure out how to make the service *safely* use the machine account (but not on a DC)... I don't think those can be locked out (though that is me guessing).   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Myrick, Todd (NIH/CIT) Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 10:14 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [ActiveDir] Turn off account lockout feature on a account. Does anyone know how to disable account lockout restrictions on a account Like a service account, but leave the rest of the accounts with the ability to be locked out?   Thanks,   Toddler
