Hi,

we are running a windows 2000 domain (primary domain controller and backup domain controller) and a bunch of NT clients connecting to it.

For no reason sometimes the clients are not able to logon, especially if we reset the person's password or force it to be changed on the next logon. There is no clear pattern though.

Have you got any ideas on how to solve this problem? Thank you in advance.

It seems like that passwords are not replicating
quickly enough to all domain controllers for users to logon. Usually it's a good idea to wait
a couple minutes or so after a password reset to logon. You might want to check the replication
frequency on your domain controllers.
Hope this helps.
