Our W2K3 server suddenly (as far as we can tell) started denying access to
any user whose account was created, or whose password was changed after some
unknown event occured. Any user created before the event and whose password
has not been changed can login without dificulty.

The problem users receive the "incorrect username or password" message.

Any ideas what happened and how to fix it?

Thanks!
