Domain user is blocked without reason
We have 2 users in our domain that sometimes when they wonna login (CTRL+ALT+DEL) their user is already blocked on the domain. Is there an application where we can monitor why this happens?We think it's because they put they logged in a computer elsewhere with a certain program and now they changed the password it blocks.Result: every morning they call the helpdesk to unlock their user
