Windows Server 2008 r2 (will be moving to 2012 r2)
since implementing account lockout policy two days ago, we've been bombarded by calls to unlock accounts. and after a few minutes, same users get their accounts locked again.
my question, since we are already using strong password policy (8 chars min, 90 days max to expire), at this day and age is it still best practice to rely on account lockout policy? keeping in mind the above flood of calls.
