Referenced account is currently locked out-not domain account
I have SBS 2003. I tried to access a shared folder on the server from a Vista workstation that is not part of the domain. I log in locally to the workstation and tried to coonect to the shared forlder but get the message:" The referenced account is currently logged out and may not be logged in". When I log into the workstation as Administrator, I can access the share with the domain administrator login. But when I log into the workstation as the local user, I don't even get the login screen.
My local login on the workstation is "Bill" and there is a domain user with named "Bill". Does that have something to do with it? I have been able to login from another workstation and connect to the share as Bill-using the domian login account to login to the server in order to access the share.
Is there a way I can unlock the account?

Resetting the login credentials worked for me
Access windows explore to map a drive.
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.
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.
