A user account was locked out

Post by kifchan »

Hello
One PC has an admin account and other PCs have the same account, but with a different password. I have added a list of shares on other PCs to everything, but I have no access to them. Is it possible that everything can cause account lockouts on computers in local network? Trying to log in with my username and password on a PC with the same username but different passwords (like bruteforce)

Yes, if you use the wrong password a couple of times (IIRC: 3), you will be locked out.

Best way is to run Everything with your regular user account and give that user access to your shares on other systems.

Thank you, for a long time I couldn't figure out why accounts randomly were being blocked
