Reminds me of my days working on minis. They changed our title from Field
Engineer to Customer Engineer. The standard joke was that the was normally
what needed to be fixed, so the name was more appropriate.

Simple for me.
Remove their user from the group permissions.
They can try all day and never get in to lock themselves out.
You guys have taught me a lot about how to fix users.

It's a sad fact, but in some regards not all employees are equal under the laws
of who gets the big clue-by-4 and who doesn't.

Thats ridiculous! The user cannot dictate what I do on my firewall, period. If
they do not want to delete or shut down what I tell them is causing the problem
then I tell them that they will continue to have said problem until they comply.

Good call. BTDT. I wound up having to block the employee's home IP at the
firewall because he wouldn't delete the account from the old device.

Any chance they got a new phone? I had a user who had this going on a few years
ago and it turns out they got a new phone, gave their old phone to their kids,
and thought they had wiped all the settings—but it was still set to sync
contacts. After the next password change they started getting lockouts and I
traced it back to her home IP, had her bring the phone in, and hard reset it.
Problem solved.

Iis caches usernames/passwords for 4 – 24 hours. Seems likely that they have
more than one device attempting to connect.
I personally have 3 devices plus Outlook. When I change my password I expect to
get locked out a couple of times until I get all the passwords updated.

Subject: [NTSysADM] User lock out
User changed password.
Keeps getting locked out.
Removes email from phone.
Resets password.
Keeps getting locked out.
Logs or events show attempts from the exchange server.
What tool can I use to determine exactly what is causing the bad attempts that
are locking her out?
