Maybe authentification takes place at the terminal server.

This frequently happens when users have saved their password in the

rdp client on their workstation. After a password change, the rdp

client still contains the old password.

I glad to received your reply. I had created dummy account & enabled

password never expired for TS user account. And all user login to TS by

hardcoded RDP file. So I think we can ignore user wrong password mistake in

this case.

 

On the other hand, I has been check security event log in all domain

controllers and all terminal servers. But I can't found any bad password

login.

 

Please help to solve this issue.

 

Thanks,

Mmm, it's strange that you can't find the events, I don''t know how

to explain that, assuming that auditing is enabled for all secuirty

events.

Once the users are logged in, can they connect to a shared network

folder on another server? Or maybe the C: drive on their own

workstation? If someone configured such a network connection to be

restored automatically upon every logon, and the connection needs a

password (which is private to a single user), that could also cause

the account to lockout.
