I have a user whose account was locked because of preauthentication failure

and his failure code was 0x18 which is normally a bad password. What does bad

password mean? Does it mean wrong password. Moreover my user's account was

locked when he was already log on to his machine. His pc did not save any

other user password under user management. Pls advise why his account was

locked, thks in advance.

Hello inenewbl,

 

Check your domain password policy on the domain level. Here are all options

configured how passwords and lockouts etc. are handled. The account locks

because of wrong typed passwords and in your policy is defined how often

it is allowed before locking it.

 

Best regards
