Thanks, I added an attribute, "nstimelimit=-1" to the user, mscript and all is well. However, I did it from another server that it is setup with in a MM configuration. The replication occurred and the lockout stopped. Some background: This script does checks every 30 seconds. Having this occur so often is necessary because this DS is behind a load balancer and the results of the script update the load balancer with it status. If the script fails, the server is taken out of the load balancer. Another Question: This got me to think about applying this attribute at the OU level, instead of on each UID. Will that apply to ALL users in that OU ? Thanks, Dave
