Post Locked Out Of Server Everyday!
Hey Ya'll!

I'm An IT Guy at a medium sized organization. There's one particular machine that's on our network, The user gets locked out everyday... They would have to log on, then map the network drive... that's the usual... but everyday we would have to access the server and unlock this user. This doesn't happen with anyone else...

Is there something that I'm missing that causes this to happen??

Please Advise!

Many Thanks!

Have you tried the same user login on a different client desktop if that is possible.

Are they using Outlook and or IE? Does outlook or IE prompt for authentication several times for no reason?

Assuming its Winsdows 2003 have you checked and reset the account lockout. Or rebuilt the users profile on the server?

The gurus here will need a bit more info about server versions and OS types and client desktop running which OS?

Could be trojan/spyware on client machine?
