I don't think this is what he is trying to say. He is using CRBP and in the plugin logs (I assume) he is seeing a successful login attempt then before or after, the same account sends an authentication request but this time the password is blank.

Users getting locked out ** >From what you typed let me try to understand.. You are asking your users to not enter the AD password in the password field when authenticating in the ARS???? If so, that is the problem.. Cross Reference Blank Password (CRBP) doesn't mean that the user should not enter the AD password in the password field.. It simply means that if the User form does not have a password set for that user, and CRBP is configured as the authentication method for the AR Server, then the AR Server would use the AD password to authenticate the user. It means that the user will need to use the AD password in the password field, and not leave the password field blank when logging into the AR System.. If they leave the password field blank, the AD will deny it and it will account for a bad password attempt..

Users getting locked out ** Thanks for the response Marcelo We can see that the lockout is coming from 3 failed attempts at login. According to the logs the account attempts to authenticate with a NULL password, this is sent from the same Remedy Server in which the user authenticates. Our only work around right now is setting static passwords which creating administrative nightmares for us.. ..Matt From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Martinez, Marcelo A Sent: Monday, June 14, 2010 10:58 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: 75. Users getting locked out ** I am experiencing this same issue but only when I'm logged into my production and dev box at the same time. And it doesn't happen all the time. When I look to see what is it locking the account, it only shows that the Kerberos ticket process locked my account. I still cannot figure out why it's locking. The good thing is that it doesn't happen to my users, just to me and only when logged into both environments. I wonder if it has to do with the data visualization fields within Remedy. (i.e. the flashboards on the Chg Mgmt Console). mine sometimes gives me an 623 Auth error. There is a free utility called "Alockout" available on microsoft's website which may be helpful.

Users getting locked out ** Using blank password/cross reference/NT Authentication users are able to login to the system but immediately after word get their network account locked.
