When an account is disabled or locked out due to too many attempts
with an incorrect password, is this logged to any event log (WinNT4)?
I have tested locking an account and do not see any events being
logged. I would like to use some paging software to notify me in
advance that a user account is locked out prior to being called by the
user.

Thanks for your assistance.
