Instead of buying something, might you try: Nbtstat -A 192.168.0.0 -n
Sub your IP address of course. Now you could write a batch to do all in one shot something like Nbtstat -A 192.168.0.0 -n > whoislogon.txt Nbtstat -A 192.168.0.1 -n >> whoislogon.txt Nbtstat -A 192.168.0.2 -n >> whoislogon.txt Nbtstat -A 192.168.0.3 -n >> whoislogon.txt Nbtstat -A 192.168.0.4 -n >> whoislogon.txt Notepad.exe whoislogon.exe This would list all your IP's and who was logged on them.

I personally don't know of ways to determine the number or location(s) of workstation(s) a user is logged in to, but here are other issues that could be causing the account lockout on just the one workstation: * A service that runs in the user's context instead of the SYSTEM context and that occasionally has to communicate with a domain server. * Specialty software that has to store the user's password and that communicates with a domain server and somehow passes that password to the server. * If you're using Exchange and the user has the mailbox open in Outlook when he changes his password, Outlook will still touch the Exchange server with the old password (like at mail checks). If the user just locks his workstation and doesn't log out, the account will keep getting locked out. * Persistant network drive mappings can sometimes retain knowledge of an old password. -- Su Wadlow [EMAIL PROTECTED] Faculty/Staff Support ------------------------------------------------------------------- SurfControl E-mail Filter puts the brakes on spam, viruses and malicious code.
