Thanks Guido (and others) It looks like the UPN and/or domain\userid approach with user education is going to be the way forward. It would be nice to collapse ForestB to a single domain infrastructure, but it won't happen any time soon. :-) Tony -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

Well, I've seen in our AD when it was W2K, the administrator account was showing as locked in dsa.msc if you try too may incorrect auth attempts. But I was still able to logon with it as expected. I didnt check to see if any events were logged to indicate that it was. I cannot repro your setup

My experience with this is the default ADMINISTRATOR can be locked out (wait before shouting!) what I mean is that if you have a lockout threshold of lets say 5, the lockoutTime attribute will show the lockout date and time the account was locked. In ADUC (using another custom admin

No that is what bitwise filters are all about, so you can focus in on just the disabled bit which happens to be bit 1 which is value 2. So to find all disabled users in a domain you do something like adfind -default -bit -f (objectcategory=person)(objectclass=user)(useraccountcontrol:AND:=2) -dn

adfind -sc scontainsl:uid is the easiest. Or use dsquery or ldp with the base set to the schema and pass the following filter. ((objectcategory=classschema)(maycontain=uid)) The above tries to do a search for classes where the maycontain attribute contains uid. HTH M@ On 7/19/06, WATSON, BEN
