Protected Administrative Account

by kwoolsey . Updated 22 years, 1 month ago

Is there any way to configure a ‘master’ administrative account that cannot be locked out by, let’s say, a disgruntled member of an IT team. This account would be protected (A restricted OU?) and the password held be a very select few. (Windows 2000/3 Active Directory)

The main worry is that someone could lock out or change passwords to the degree of crippling a network. I have just started looking into this and any tips would be fantastic.

Thanks in advance.
