I also have this problem in one of the environments I support, which has mixed Win2K Pro and Win98SE clients with a Win2K SP2 server. In my case what happens is that the people logging in from Win98SE get locked out all the time, but the Win2K Pro people are fine. You might find Q264678 of interest, it discusses increased lockout frequency related to Kerberos authentication. ----- K. Triona Guidry Guidry Consulting, Inc.
