Look and see if there's a service running as his account, that is using
the old password. I had someone here that did that to me, and it was
definitely aggravating that the IDS kept reporting his account locking
out every day starting at the same time.

I have never posted to this board, so hopefully I'm following the right
procedures.  My issue is that a user's account keeps getting locked out
due to an aggressive password policy (30 days) and he claims that he
isn't logged into multiple machines nor is he fat fingering his password.
 Is anybody aware of a product to find out where or how many Windows
2000 servers or workstations a user is logged into?  My thinking is that
he's logged into multiple machines under an old password that keeps locking
him out.
