Check out unlock from www.joeware.net on the free win32 tools page, it will
always show you the proper info for accounts as to whether they are locked
or not.
The issue is that it isn't a simple thing in W2K AD to determine the locked
status of an account using LDAP.

Thanks for the explanation, makes sense now.
Well... It makes sense why I was getting the computer accounts in the
export anyway.
Thanks again,

Hi
Guido,
Thanks
for the info. I am aware of the security hole so this may really boil down
to perception. The client has a requirement that two of their business
units operate with greater autonomy - to the point of being able to be spun off

It won't uncheck the "account locked out" box, but if you try to logon with
