RE: [ActiveDir] lockout account

[Brian Desmond]

You can try setting the lockout bit (below) on userAccountControl but I’m nearly positive only the  system can set that bit. What is your end goal/why are you trying to do this?   ADS_UF_LOCKOUTADS_UF_LOCKOUT The account is currently locked out. = 16,    // 0x10   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Kern Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 9:49 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] lockout account   I guess what I want to know is what attrib you can set to just lock it out...   Thanks   On 4/18/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: When testing, I simply use a "net use" command and provide the correct userID but wrong pw.

Do i have to manipulate the userAccountControl attribute or lockoutTime attrib?   Can you just do this using Adsiedit.msc or LDP.exe as well?     Just curious.
