Summary: Account lock outs are occuring and currently
there are NO GPs or any account policy set to lock out
accounts.

Some Detail: The lock outs vary between users, time, and
location (i.e. internal and remote)and also if they are
logged onto the domain or locally. Sometimes the lock
outs affect a few people and other times it affects the
majority.

The infrastructure in Win 2000 server with most recent
patches and 2000/XP clients. All server are at the same
location and in the same domain.

There is a Windows 2003 Terminal Server (the schema has
not been extended nor is this a domain controller)

A Radius server is installed.

External DNS is Linux -- internal is Win2000 AD

I have research this at MS but nothing really seems to
fit.

Any help would be great.
