Hi Malcolm,
Thank you very much for coming back to us.
Could you let me know what the incorrect password threshold is on your
domain? We have ours set at 3 (auditor’s requirements!).
Please could you also run this Microsoft application:
Account Lockout Status (LockoutStatus.exe)
Found at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=
D1A5ED1D-CD55-4829-A189-99515b0E90F7
Which queries the active directory to show how many incorrect password
attempts are/were made; and in our case it shows 3 times (as the lockout is
hit at this point) - we did increase (temporarily) the threshold to 9 to see
if it actually 3 or more attempts made by blackboard; and it is 4.
Regards
Andy
