The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to!!
Hi everyone,
Came across this problem where we had to change the harddisk and reinstall all the applications back again.
Had some mapped drives on a remote client connected via wan links to this server also this machine is on a different network and the server is on a different network but they can ping each other because they are in an routed environment.
The problem now is that the mapped drives that were created on the machine cannot be accessed and it generates the following error message "the referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to" .The server is a windows 2003 server what is causing this to generate this error guess i have stopped some services or have applied some local security policies,also note that there are few local users who are accessing the server locally through the same mapped drives on the server.
Need assistance as soon as possible thanks a ton.

Resetting the login credentials worked for me
1, Access windows explore to map a drive.
2. After picking a drive letter and folder, click on the underlined statement that says Connect using a different username
By default the system is trying to connect to the share via the local computer and account which in mu case wasnt working.
3. In the windows I changed the account to my domain administrator account and was able to map a drive and was able to map to share from command prompt.
Hope this helps some of you because what I was finding on the internet was no leading me to this conclusion.
