sql server odbc: I have 50 users connecting to SQL server via ODBC using
TCP/IP to connect. But 2 of the users accounts keep on
having their windows accounts locked out.

Turn on Windows auditing, maybe even SQL auditing as well. Have your users
log off and back on their computers and watch both security logs. NT
authentication for SQL doesn't ask for a password when connecting, it just
checks your Windows credentials. Are they mapping network drives before
connecting to SQL? Maybe the password credentials there are bad. You might
want to tell them to disconnect any network drives and remap them. Do a net
use as well and check for persistent connections.
